Israeli occupation authorities in the Margaliot settlement in northern occupied Palestine on the border with Lebanon said that the Israeli occupation forces must withdraw from the settlement, stating that Margaliot does not need to be protected from Hezbollah, but from the Israeli government, which they said has been destroying the settlement through its decisions.
According to Israeli media, the head of the Israeli Margaliot settlement, Eitan Davidi, announced that the settlement has decided to cut ties with the Israeli government and remove all troops from the settlement.
He added that the IOF operations room in the settlement would be shut down, emphasizing that no one, including IOF troops and officers, would be able to enter it.
The Israeli settlement was directly affected by the decision of the Israeli government and the Ministry of Agriculture, which they said has caused greater damage than Hezbollah’s anti-armor missiles.
Israeli settler group sets up protest camp in North
Lobby 1701, an Israeli association of northern settlers advocating for a buffer zone from the Lebanese border to the Litani River, announced in a post on X on May 17 that it is teaming up with other Israeli organizations to establish the Galilee Displaced Persons Camp near Kibbutz Ammiad in northern “Israel”.
The camp is a direct appeal to Israeli occupation Prime Minister Netanyahu’s government to restore “security” in the North, as per the post.
According to the organizers, the initiative aims to highlight the urgent need for security measures in the region.
In another post on Telegram, Lobby 1701 expressed their frustration, “For seven months, we have bitten our lips, controlled ourselves, and patiently waited for security to be enforced in the North. But now, as communities collapse, families are destroyed, and businesses close their doors, it is time to wake up!”
The group emphasized that this camp is not just a one-time protest but a sustained effort that will continue until their security demands are addressed.
