"Israeli Settlers and Ministers Advocate Gaza Resettlement Amid Ongoing Conflict"

Hundreds of Israeli settlers gathered in Jerusalem for a convention advocating the rebuilding of settlements in Gaza and the northern part of the West Bank. The conference, organized by the right-wing Nahala organization, was attended by 12 ministers from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party and other far-right coalition members. Speakers at the conference emphasized the link between settlements and security, expressing opposition to the government's past evacuation of settlements from Gaza and calling for a return to control of the land.
