Israeli media reported that the state of internal chaos that "Israel" is witnessing after Operation Al-Aqsa Flood is turning into a phenomenon of arming settlers in a random manner. 

Israeli Ynet news website confirmed the formation of about 600 armed groups in occupied cities and settlements.

The website pointed out that the occupation police have distributed about 5,000 weapons so far, indicating that these armed formations will spread in Upper Galilee, Lower Galilee, and in "Lachish, Merom HaGalil, Misgav, Ramat Negev, and Sha'ar HaNegev."

The police will also be present in Beersheba, Akko, Ramla, Nahariya, and "Bnei Brak, Elad, Ma'alot-Tarshiha, Nof Hagalil, Sagur, Carmiel, Kiryat Motzkin, and Kasra Samei," according to the website.

The website further revealed that some groups have commenced training, explaining that the plan includes expansion steps to include additional settlements one by one, including the cities of Afula, "Rishon LeZion, Beit Shemesh, Kfar Saba, and Rehovot.”

The website stated that 26 armed groups will be deployed next Thursday throughout occupied al-Quds.

Evacuation plans 

After the internal displacement of a large group of settlers, whether from the north or the occupied south, the occupation emergency authority is considering placing settlers in public facilities, such as schools, if the hotels get overcrowded, according to Israeli media.

In this context, Israeli media confirmed that "Israel" is not prepared for this scale of evacuation of settlers from the north and south, and Israeli Channel 13 pointed out that there are 5,000 settlers from "Kiryat Shmona" and the surrounding settlements who have not been evacuated, and their fate is unknown.

The channel explained that the settlers in the north depend on the authorities, but they are unaware of what is happening, stressing that they are suffering from trauma after what happened in the occupied south. 

On the southern front, where more than 10,000 settlers from the Gaza envelope believe that the occupation army has abandoned them and are begging for help, the occupation government is looking forward to establishing a settlement near "Eilat" to accommodate them, according to Israeli media.
