Engineering vehicles operated by the Samaria Regional Council entered the ground Wednesday evening to begin the renewal of the settlement of Ganim in northern Samaria, the council said. Ganim was abandoned during the 2005 disengagement; the current move is the first on-the-ground step in its reestablishment. The council framed the entry as a historic moment for the region.
As The Zioneer reported this evening, the move had been anticipated and the council's announcement confirms the start of physical work. No further details on the scope or timeline of construction have been released yet, and it remains unclear whether the operation includes any preparatory infrastructure work or only a symbolic vehicle entry.
