Sa-Nur
Sa-Nur (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />שָׂא נוּר, lit. Flame Carrier) was an Israeli settlement in the northern West Bank under the administrative jurisdiction of Shomron Regional Council until 2005.[1] Prior to its demolition, Sa-Nur was home to 43 families.[2]
Unilateral disengagement
In September 2005 its 105 residents were evicted and Israel Defense Forces soldiers began dismantling Sanur as part of Israeli disengagement from Gaza.[3] The demolition of Sa-Nur and Homesh marked the end of the central part of the disengagement plan.[4] The only remaining structure, a synagogue, was buried.[5]
Attempts to rebuild
Since the demolition, religious Zionist groups have attempted to return to Sa-Nur, in order to rebuild the community. On 8 May 2008. Following a permitted Independence Day rally in Homesh, a group of 150 set off at night for Sa-Nur, including many former residents.[2]
On 30 July 2015, marking the 10 year anniversary since the explosion, 250 people, made up of 20 former families, attempted to settle Sa-Nur, before being forcibly evicted by the IDF.[6][7]
