The possibility that Israel will implement the withdrawal from the northern part of the village of Ghajar is higher than ever due to the high interest of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, local media reported.

The division of the village has often been used by Hezbollah as a reason for continued hostility towards Israel. (Xinhua JINI) MIDEAST-ISRAEL-SYRIA-GHAJAR-WITHDRAWAL
