Army Okays Return to Many Communities near Gaza
(Times of Israel) Canaan Lidor - The Israel Defense Forces' Home Front Command on Thursday declared it essentially safe to return to all communities located between four and seven km. from the border with Gaza, along with 18 communities even closer to the Strip. The region was evacuated following the Oct. 7 attack, as rocket fire continued to rain on Israeli towns. The rocket threat has largely, but not completely, abated. Excepted from the resettlement plan are communities that suffered the most extensive damage, such as Kibbutz Nir Oz, Nahal Oz, Be'eri and Kfar Aza, which will require months or years to rebuild.
