Metulla, the northernmost town in Israel located on the border with Lebanon, celebrated its 130th anniversary on Thursday evening. The event comes as residents continue to return to routine after months of conflict and evacuation. According to Israeli media reports, the celebration was held despite the difficulties the community has faced, including rocket fire from Hezbollah and the subsequent displacement. As The Zioneer reported in late June, Metulla held its first summer event after the ceasefire, marking the anniversary. The current celebration signals a further step toward normalcy for the town, which has been a focal point of the northern front.
