Airbnb Reverses Plans to Ban Israeli Listings in Judea and Samaria

(TPS) The Airbnb global tourism company announced that it will not boycott Israeli properties in Judea and Samaria and will not implement its anti-Israel boycott.

The company announced Tuesday that after having settled all lawsuits that were brought by hosts and guests who objected to its policy, Airbnb will not move forward with implementing the removal of listings in Judea and Samaria from their platform.

“We understand the complexity of the issue that was addressed in our previous policy announcement, and we will continue to allow listings throughout all of the West Bank,” but Airbnb will take no profits from this activity in the region and will be donated to non-profit organizations dedicated to humanitarian aid.

Airbnb further stated that it has always opposed the anti-Israel BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement.

“Airbnb has never boycotted Israel, Israeli businesses, or the more than 20,000 Israeli hosts who are active on the Airbnb platform. We have always sought to bring people together and will continue to work with our community to achieve this goal,” Airbnb said in a statement.
