JERUSALEM, Jan. 3 (UPI) -- Lawmakers in Israel called for a boycott of Israeli companies aiding in the building of Rawabi, the first new Palestinian West Bank city, officials said.
The lawmakers accuse the companies of signing contracts agreeing to refrain from purchasing Israeli goods made in West Bank settlements, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights, thereby supporting a boycott on such goods initiated by the Palestinian Authority, Israel Radio said Monday.
