'We've lost al-Jalil': Israeli MK
In a related context, Israeli media cited Knesset member Oded Forer as saying that in five and a half months, "Israel" lost al-Jalil to Hezbollah's operations.
The Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth also highlighted the situation facing settlers in northern settlements, emphasizing that they are "drained and paying a heavy price due to the fighting with Hezbollah."
According to the newspaper, the settlers in the north are "depressed" and are posing questions such as, "What do we do to end the nightmare of Hezbollah rockets?"
The newspaper cited an Israeli settler living in one of the al-Jalil settlements near the border with Lebanon as saying that "settlers there live among Hezbollah rockets," describing the situation as "terrible".
Yedioth Ahronoth mentioned that more than 60,000 Israelis in al-Jalil settlements have been displaced and evacuated to other settlements since the start of the fighting in October.
It added that since October, the "northern community" has collapsed, many businesses have been shut down, and displaced settlers have scattered to other settlements.
One settler told the newspaper that someone from the Israeli leadership must address the settlers' problems, adding that Israeli the government has forgotten the settlers in the north "and has become accustomed to their living under war."
The settler added that "a sense of helplessness" accompanies all al-Jalil settlers, who never imagined that this situation would continue for more than five months.
On Wednesday, Israeli media expressed frustration at the lack of a solution in sight regarding the mass evacuation of settlers from northern occupied Palestine due to Hezbollah's ongoing operations.
According to a report by The Wall Street Journal in late December 2023, the Resistance operations from Lebanon, which started last October, have led to the fleeing of nearly a quarter-million Israelis from the north.
The Israeli Channel 12 criticized the current situation and how it reflects on the image and state of the occupation entity in front of its settlers.
"How is it conceivable that a sovereign state evacuates its citizens for over 5 months without a solution in sight? This is simply an intolerable situation," the outlet reported.
