The "Auri Tzafon" movement has welcomed statements by Israeli Finance Minister and Religious Zionism party chairman Bezalel Smotrich regarding the promotion of Jewish settlement in southern Lebanon. The movement views this as a significant step towards ensuring the security of residents in northern Israel.
In a letter to Smotrich, the movement stated that his declaration significantly elevates the issue of settlement in southern Lebanon on the public and political agenda. They argue that settlement in the area is crucial for resolving the conflict in the north. "Auri Tzafon" contends that southern Lebanon is historically part of the Land of Israel and that establishing Jewish communities there would create a security buffer zone to protect Israeli communities in the Galilee.
"Settlement in southern Lebanon constitutes historical justice and is the only guarantee for creating an active security strip that will protect the communities of the Galilee," the letter read. The "Auri Tzafon" movement, established in memory of IDF soldier Israel Sokol, who fell in Gaza, has been active since 2024 advocating for Jewish settlement in southern Lebanon through conferences, tours, and demonstrations demanding a policy change on the northern border.
