Khaberni - The Israeli government is hiding the enhancement of military rule in the West Bank, and twenty years after disengagement, Israeli electricity is expected to restore power next week to the evacuated settlements, especially the Homesh settlement and Sebastia park in the northern West Bank.
According to "Yedioth Ahronoth," the CEO of the Israel Electric Corporation, "Meir Shpegler," will soon visit the area to closely examine the planning and execution of the necessary infrastructure works to connect to the Israeli electricity network.
Since the area was evacuated in 2005, settlers have returned to preserve what they call "the Jewish presence."
It is worth noting that until about two years ago, settlers were prohibited from being present in the evacuated settlement area, even the state filed lawsuits against the rabbi of the religious school of Homesh settlement (Yeshiva) because he resided there.
However, the newspaper adds, "Homesh" and the northern West Bank, in general, have seen significant changes during the period of the current Israeli government. Now, for the first time since the evacuation, the state officially sends the electricity company to establish permanent infrastructure that enables organizing life and studying in the area properly.
The electricity company will undertake similar work in Sebastia, where the occupying state has recently seized large areas of Palestinian land for its purposes.
Connecting the two settlements to the official electricity network may be a tactical measure, but it embodies the substantial change the government has made regarding the West Bank.
This step, officially initiated by the Israeli government to carry out infrastructure works on the ground, is another part of the annexation puzzle that the government is striving hard to achieve.
Shpegler, CEO of the electricity company, stated: "We are working on restoring electricity to five cities and the capital of the Kingdom of Israel, Sebastia. Connecting the area to the Israeli electricity network will also boost tourism there."
The maps in a series of five parts, as revealed by the news site, show twice the size of the settlement and indicate that the settlers' council intends to double the number of settlers there.
Concurrently with the expected return of settlers to the Sanur settlement, the Israeli government has actually repealed the disengagement law in the northern West Bank.
