Hmm. Sounds like maybe a prelude to “ceding” the outposts.
There’s no need for Israel to be that mushy, though if the outposts are in particular danger and difficult to defend the people there should be warned. They may voluntarily wish to move deeper into Israeli territory.
At Mitzpeh Avihai, they have no security fence, not even barbed wire. The people defend themselves, with guns and large dogs. At least one IDF soldier lives there. Surprisingly, the Arabs who live around them seem fairly friendly for the most part.
