Ahead of elections: Otzma Yehudit to promote Jewish communities in northern Gaza
Nachala Movement presents Otzma Yehudit party members with plans to resettle the communities of Nisanit, Elei Sinai, and Dugit in the northern Gaza Strip before the upcoming elections
Assessment
A settlement advocacy group is lobbying a far-right Israeli political party to prioritize the reestablishment of three former settlements in the northern Gaza Strip ahead of national elections. This signals that territorial claims in Gaza are being injected directly into the electoral platform, potentially hardening the political landscape around any future diplomatic or security arrangements for the area. The move tests how central the resettlement issue will be in the campaign.
