The Israeli government has recently approved the allocation of 19 billion shekels over the next five years for the restoration and development of settlements on the border with the Gaza Strip. Another 18 billion shekels have been allocated for the same purposes in the following five years. This program, developed by the Tkuma Office, aims to invest in housing, infrastructure, education, employment, medicine, and more to develop settlements around Gaza for future generations.
The plan also includes transforming the area into a hub for science and sports, expanding institutions like Sapir College and the southern Wingate Institute. Advanced agriculture utilizing the latest technologies will be a focus, along with attracting new residents and fostering harmonious growth in the region.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized that this investment is crucial to counter threats posed by Hamas terrorists. He stated that this program aims to build a stronger and more resilient Land of Israel while defending it from any danger. The objective is to create a sustainable future for Israelis living in these regions.
Local authorities have been involved in developing this program’s implementation plan. The program covers various aspects such as housing construction, infrastructure development, economic growth, tourism enhancement, job creation with a significant emphasis on ensuring both personal and national security.
