 Residents of a Jewish outpost in the occupied West Bank have agreed to evacuate the area just one week before the deadline for eviction.

The community of Amona accepted a government relocation proposal with 45 votes in favour and 29 against.

Sunday’s decision comes after a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The Supreme Court earlier ruled that the homes were built on private Palestinian land.
 
Families living at the unauthorised site, or outpost, were ordered to leave the area in the northern West Bank by 25 December.
 
Messages posted on Twitter by representatives of the Amona community said the decision to accept the government proposal was “not an easy one”.
“We can definitely say that this decision was the most difficult one we ever took,” one tweet reads, while another adds: “All who voted FOR did that with a heavy heart.”
