Dozens of pioneer families established the new community of Eival on Mount Ebal in Samaria on Thursday, according to a Telegram post. The ceremony was attended by Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan, MKs Boaz Bismuth, Simcha Rothman, Isaac Goldknopf, and others. Dagan said it was 'a special day in the history of the people of Israel.'
The new community of Eival on Mount Ebal was formally established in a ceremony on Thursday, attended by Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan, MKs Boaz Bismuth, Simcha Rothman, and Isaac Goldknopf. The event, which took place as scheduled at noon, marks the culmination of the day's initial moves.
Earlier today at 11:10 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that the first families had moved into caravans at the site, with Dagan stating the aim of 600 families as part of the 'One Million in Samaria' plan. By 11:10, a ground-breaking ceremony was announced for noon. The ceremony proceeded as planned, with the attendance of the MKs.
The settlement is part of a broader expansion in Samaria, as The Zioneer reported on July 10 regarding the initial establishment of the settlement. The 'One Million in Samaria' plan, cited by Dagan, has been a driving goal.
While the establishment ceremony has taken place, the target of 600 homes remains a future goal, and the pace of construction is yet to be seen.
