<p>Israel's prime minister-elect Benjamin Netanyahu and Jewish Power leader Itamar Ben-Gvir agreed on Wednesday to amend laws allowing for the legalization of unauthorized West Bank outposts. </p>
<p>Outposts – sometimes called "young settlements" – are constructed without approval from the Israeli government, whereas settlements have government authorization. </p>

<p>Far-right lawmaker Ben-Gvir has been pushing to legalize the Homesh outpost and yeshiva that was evacuated as part of the disengagement from the Gaza Strip in 2005. </p>
<p>Ben-Gvir and Netanyahu agreed that the legalization, which would involve changing the Disengagement Law, would occur within 60 days of the government being sworn in. The law forbids Israelis from entering the Homesh area, yet they flock to the location regularly and have established a yeshiva there. </p>
