The new settlement of Giv'at Shomron was established on the ground in northern Samaria the morning after the Knesset elections. The settlement is located on land that previously housed the training base for the Paratroopers Brigade, near Sa-Nur. The first caravans have already been placed, and founding families have begun arriving. The establishment group consists of families from Ramat Gan and graduates of the Ramat Gan Yeshiva. An official ceremony for the establishment is scheduled for later in the day, with the participation of ministers, Knesset members, rabbis, and public figures. The creation of Giv'at Shomron is part of the Samaria Regional Council's "Connection Plan," which aims to establish 19 new settlements in northern Samaria. Yossi Dagan, Head of the Samaria Regional Council, who visited the site, welcomed the move, stating, "This is our Zionist answer to the uprooting. Together we will raise the banner of Israel and all the people of Israel, we are here to stay!"
