National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir addresses a march in Sderot, calling for Israel to reestablish settlements in the Gaza Strip and “encourage voluntary emigration” of Palestinians from the enclave.
It’s moral! It’s rational! It’s right! It’s the truth! It’s the Torah and the only way! And yes, it’s also humanitarian,” claims Ben Gvir, who heads the ultranationalist Otzma Yehudit party.
The rally is also addressed by Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi of the ruling Likud party, who urges Israeli settlement in Gaza both “to exact a heavy price from the Hamas Nazis, and also to defend our nation and homeland.”
“We will erase the shame of 5,765 with the settlement of the year 5,785,” referring respectively to the Hebrew year in which Israel completely withdrew from Gaza and the upcoming Hebrew year starting in the fall.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
