The new settlement of Giv'at Shomron was established in northern Samaria on the morning after the Knesset elections. The settlement is located on land that previously housed the Paratroopers Brigade's training base, near Sa-Nur. The first mobile homes have been placed, and founding families have begun arriving. The founding group consists of families from Ramat Gan and graduates of the Ramat Gan Yeshiva. A formal establishment ceremony is scheduled for later in the day, with the participation of ministers, Knesset members, rabbis, and public figures. The establishment of Giv'at Shomron is part of the "Connection Plan" led by the Samaria Regional Council, which aims to establish 19 new settlements in northern Samaria. Yossi Dagan, Head of the Samaria Regional Council, who visited the site, stated, "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!"
