Approximately eight Israeli families relocated to the outskirts of Jericho about a week ago, establishing a new settlement. The move was facilitated by the "Nachala" movement, which purchased land from Palestinians in the area with the stated goal of "strengthening" the Jewish presence. The families have left their previous lives behind to reside in the Palestinian city.

One resident expressed the group's intention, stating, "We are coming to seize the point of the beginning, so that it can be established." The settlement is situated in an area populated by Palestinians, and the families are now living amidst them.
