TEL AVIV – After
Israeli Minister of Security, Yuval Golan, announced his intention to enhance the security of settlements
near the border with Lebanon amid ongoing clashes with the Islamic Resistance,
Israeli settlers criticized Golan's declaration, according to Israeli

As reported by Al-Ghad Newspaper, a settler
who was evacuated from the settlement of "
Kiryat Shmona," named Moshe
Kakon, was quoted by Yedioth Ahronoth's correspondent in the north, Yair Kraus,
saying, "They brag that they are doing something good for the north, but
this is not a blessing, but another curse... Surely, these will not be the
conditions that will lead us back to our homes."
He also believed that "fortifying the
north should have been completed a long time ago." He continued, "It
would be better for the government to explain to the public what is happening
here, because we do not understand how they expect us to return home in this
situation."
The correspondent noted that "Israelis,
who have been living as refugees for 9 weeks in small rooms in hotels
throughout the country and in
rented apartments rented indefinitely, are
running out of patience."
The correspondent mentioned that "there
was no quiet in
Kiryat Shmona yesterday, Tuesday, and from 5 pm to 6 pm, air
raid sirens went off three times in the city due to missile launches from
Lebanon, and the police dealt with several rocket impact sites."
Earlier, Israeli media reported that settlers
in the north would not return to their homes if deterrence is not achieved with
Hezbollah, and there is a state of frustration in northern settlements due to
the ongoing operations of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon.
