Israeli residents of Gaza border communities will be allowed to return to their homes as the Israeli government declared on Sunday that there is “no security impediment” to living in the area.
This decision, approved Sunday by the Cabinet in a telephone referendum, follows assessments by the Israel Defense Forces and the Ministry of Defense. Consequently, funding for those staying in temporary absorption facilities will be halted for those deemed able to return.
The decision applies to twelve localities, including Be’eri, Kfar Aza, Nir Oz, Sufa, Netiv HaAsara, Nir Yitzhak, Kerem Shalom, Ein Hashlosha, Nirim, Nahal Oz, Kissufim, and Holit.
Other communities such as Nahal Oz, Kissufim, Holit, Kfar Aza, and Be’eri will continue to rely on temporary housing until reconstruction is complete.
