21 Years After Evacuation: Settlement to Be Rebuilt in Samaria

First family group to move into a site evacuated in 2005, alongside a new yeshiva branch

According to the report, this Thursday a first group of families is expected to move into a settlement site evacuated in 2005 as part of the disengagement plan. A branch of the 'Bnei David' yeshiva from Eli is also planned to be established at the same location. Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan commented on the move as reflecting expanding settlement activity in the area. The move is both symbolic and practical, signaling a shift regarding previously evacuated sites.

What this means for land buyers

The reestablishment of an evacuated settlement may open new opportunities for land purchase and self-building in the area, signaling an expansion trend in northern Samaria. Investors and families interested in land in the region should monitor the planning and regulatory developments accompanying this move.
