Reuven Gur-Aryeh, former deputy head of the Samaria Regional Council, has decided to leave the Religious Zionism party and join Yisrael Beiteinu. This was announced by Yisrael Beiteinu. Gur-Aryeh stated: "After a long process of political and values-based sobering up, I chose to join Yisrael Beiteinu. In my view, Avigdor Liberman is the only leader who can restore security to Israeli citizens."
