Renewal in Northern Samaria

In recent years, Northern Samaria has become a focal point for significant  settlement, security, and strategic developments that directly impact both the central region and Israel's national security. After years of withdrawal, of Israeli military and civilian presence, we are now witnessing a gradual return—a result of a renewed understanding of the critical importance of territorial control.

Join us for an in-depth look at the shifting reality in Northern Samaria. Meet the people “on the ground” and hear their stories which are  shaping Israel’s security and national landscape.
