Religious Zionism Party Launches West Bank Farm Tours for Sukkot Holiday
The Religious Zionism party is organizing an extensive tour program across dozens of farms and new settlements in the West Bank during the intermediate days of the Sukkot holiday. The initiative aims to showcase the "settlement revolution" to Israelis from across the country.
The program, spanning from southern Hebron to northern Samaria, will feature interactive elements and family-friendly activities. Visitors can expect to meet farmers and settlers, explore agricultural areas, and witness construction and development firsthand. Selected farms will host festive events including children's attractions, live music, workshops, and kosher food stalls.
To enhance the experience, the party developed a special app offering eight diverse routes across Judea and Samaria, covering areas like southern Hebron, Gush Etzion, Samaria, and Benjamin. The app provides precise navigation, arrival instructions, short videos, family quizzes, and digital currency rewards.
All activities have been coordinated with the IDF, Israel Police, Border Police, and security and rescue agencies to ensure a safe and peaceful experience. Access to the sites is designed to be accessible for all family vehicles.
Finance Minister and Deputy Defense Minister Bezalel Smotrich stated, "We invite all of Israel... to come and see with their own eyes the settlement revolution we are enacting in Judea and Samaria. A revolution of Zionism, values, love of the land, a revolution of security." He emphasized that Judea and Samaria serve as a security buffer for all of Israel and encouraged people to experience the security the settlements provide.
