Hundreds of Jews on Wednesday night Independence Day 68 eve tried visiting the ruins of the northern Shomron community of SaNur, albeit unsuccessfully.

Among those present were former resident of the community as well as nearby Chomesh, which was also uprooted. They were expelled from their homes in the 2005 expulsion referred to as the “Disengagement Plan”.

Police and army forces were on hand to prevent their Independence Day celebrations.
