Israeli settlers have described their lives as being imprisoned day and night since the beginning of the aggression on Gaza.

Manifesting the stark contrast between the relationship of colonizers and colonized to the land, the displaced residents of Gaza are courageously returning to their homes, meanwhile, in northern occupied Palestine, Israeli settlers are flailing to be relocated somewhere safe.

Amid the remnants of destruction caused by the Israeli aggression, Gazans are steadfastly reclaiming their lives. A Palestinian woman, returning to her village near Khan Younis, affirmed, "We will return even to the ruins of our demolished house, set up a tent, and remain steadfast in our land." The resilience of Gaza's residents shines through as they navigate the challenges of rebuilding their lives and homes.

Israeli Settlers' Paranoia

On the other side, Israeli settlers in northern territories, including "Avdon," "Alma," "Abirim", and "Gesher HaZiv" express a deep sense of anxiety, threatening legal action against the government for failing to evacuate them despite being less than 5 kilometers from the Lebanese border. 

These settlers have described their lives as being imprisoned "day and night" since the beginning of the conflict. 

A settler from "Alma" described her life as a nightmare, attributing the distress to Israeli army shelling, alarm sirens, and missile launches. She questioned the government's evacuation strategy, asking, "Why evacuate everyone around us and leave us behind?"

In contrast, Gazans are determined to rebuild, with one resident declaring, "We will not leave our land, and we will remain steadfast in Gaza and rebuild our homes."

Israeli settlers fearful of Hezbollah's Radwan Force, Burkan rockets

Earlier today, the "Israel-Alma" research center said Hezbollah's use of the Burkan rocket artillery to target Israeli military sites in northern occupied Palestine is a significant advancement in the types of weapons used by the Islamic Resistance. 

The article written by Yaakov Lappin highlights the results of Hezbollah's use of the rocket artillery, which boasts a payload of 300-500 kg of explosive material. 

Lappin said the use of the weapon "serves as a reminder of [Hezbollah's] ability to threaten [Israel]."

"This kind of firepower and with warheads of this size" raises doubts about the ability of evacuated settlers from northern settlements to return to their colonial outposts, according to Lappin.

In the article published by Alma, Lappin said the only way to ensure the return of settlers to the north is by pushing out Hezbollah's special operations unit, the Radwan Force.

Lappin then highlighted Hezbollah operations on Israeli military sites, in which the Burkan-type rockets were utilized.
