Israeli media reported that the tourist destination of "Eilat" has been transformed into a shelter for approximately 60,000 settlers who were evacuated from their communities as a consequence of increased Resistance operations in the northern and southern occupied Palestinian territories.

This situation coincides with reports of frustration among leaders of Israeli settlement councils with the Israeli government, while settlers are panicking about the ongoing escalation.

A correspondent from Israeli Kan TV reported that settlers in the southern region, including those who were evacuated, feel neglected and abandoned.

Israeli media also highlighted the rage and discontent felt by settlers who faced significant material losses following Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. It was reported that several "moshavim" (semi-collective settler communities)  were not part of a  plan designed for the evacuation of Gaza's Envelope settlements.

This is happening shortly after Israeli media reported that the Israeli government evacuated 65,000 settlers from the northern border of occupied Palestine.

Israeli Channel 12 stated that the decision regarding the evacuation of the remaining settlers had not been made, noting that "most of them had left voluntarily, financing the evacuation costs themselves without state assistance."

This statement coincides with remarks made by Yossi Yehoshua, a military affairs analyst in the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, who stated that returning to the north of Palestine is currently not feasible.

He emphasized that the northern region is a "confluence of numerous forces with few settlers," adding that, "Nasrallah is closely monitoring and listening to developments here, making it difficult to conclude this conflict as long as the Radwan unit remains on the front lines."

This comes after Israeli media sources confirmed that the relocation of at least 125,000 settlers from settlements in southern and northern occupied Palestine was underway. 

Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah is set to deliver a speech today, for the first time since the beginning of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, at a ceremony honoring the martyrs on the road to al-Quds amid Israeli and Western anticipation.
