Religious Zionist Youth Hang 1,000 Israeli Flags in Galilee
Youth from the Religious Zionist movement and the Galilee Youth organization hung approximately 1,000 Israeli flags along roads in the Galilee region and near Majd al-Krum overnight Wednesday to Thursday. The activists stated the flag-hanging initiative was intended to express Israeli sovereignty in the Negev and Galilee.
This action is part of a broader effort by the groups to promote the expansion of Jewish settlement in these areas, aiming to replicate the settlement revolution seen in Judea and Samaria in the Negev and Galilee. The flag display precedes a faction meeting of the Religious Zionist party scheduled to take place in the region on Thursday morning.
Key figures expected at the meeting include Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Minister of Settlement and National Missions Orit Strock. Discussions are anticipated to focus on strengthening Jewish presence and control in the Galilee. Meanwhile, police are deploying increased forces in the area, anticipating potential public disturbances and road blockades related to the planned faction meeting.
