מעוז אסתר (ויקיפדיה)

המאחז ממוקם צפונית ליישוב כוכב השחר. הוקם בחנוכה תשס"ו, על ידי תושבי כוכב השחר. נעזב והוקם שוב בחנוכה תשס"ח. נקרא על שם אסתר גאליה, שנרצחה בשנת תשס"ג בצומת רימונים. בחול המועד פסח תשס"ח נחנך במקום בית הכנסת "שירת יונדב", ע"ש יונדב חיים הירשפלד שנרצח בפיגוע בישיבת מרכז הרב בר"ח אדר ב' תשס"ח. המאחז פונה על ידי כוחות הביטחון כ-30 פעמים. הוא מוחזק כיום על ידי תנועת אר"י ישאג ומתגוררות בו מספר משפחות.

Although this short video is in Hebrew, Hebrew is definitely not a requirement to understand the images of this expulsion of Jews, captured here by Now 14 News. It is only 2 1/2 minutes. The link to the video was sent in by Ya'akov Cantor, resident of Kokhav HaShahar.

Here are some of the disturbing highlights:

00:00 Riot Police literally throwing around residents;  Bennett-Lapid government policy of expulsion from Jewish towns in Yehudah and Shomron (Judea and Samaria).

אהוביה סנדק הי״ד

Ahuviah Sandak hy"d

00:13 Riot Police holding down a young woman on the ground.

00:20 Combined force of riot police and border patrol totaled 400.

00:28 Destruction begins on residents’ homes.

00:45 Homes in Eretz Yisrael (The Land of Israel).

00:48 Girl being dragged away.

00:58 Twenty structures were destroyed. Eight families, including 20 children were thrown out of their homes.

1:00 The two synagogues were also destroyed, one named for Yonadav Chaim Hirschfeld hy"d, and one named for Ahuviah Sandak hy"d, killed in a police chase.

1:16 Ahuviah’s father accuses Bennett of allowing the erasure of the last standing memorial to his son on his watch.

1:25 Blockades were set up to prevent residents from returning.

1:30 Arrests of residents made with the participation of a parartrooper unit.

1:40 NK Itamar Ben-Gvir accuses the government of double standards, ignoring illegal building by Arabs in the Negev, so as not to enrage them during the upcoming month of Ramadan.

2:00 Binyamin Area* Council Chairman Yisrael Gantz accuses the Government of the same double standards, ignoring the building by [Arab so-called] Palestinians, while choosing to destroy Jewish homes. 

2:25 After the police and border patrol left the area, the residents begin rebuilding. Residents of Yehudah and Shomron have been forced to deal with the policy of the government preferring the destruction of Jewish homes.

Although the previous Netanyahu governments are far from spotless, this particular destruction and expulsion was executed by the Bennett-Lapid regime.

*Named for the ascestral territory of the Tribe of Benjamin, with which this Area mostly coicides.
