Dear Friends of AFSI,
We hope this message finds you well. Some of you who have visited us in Yitzhar in the Shomron in the past may remember our home and family.
We are writing to share an urgent and deeply personal situation. Our 18-year-old son, Tzadok, who was critically injured four years ago in a terrorist attack, has now been imprisoned for the past four months. Shockingly, this has been done without any formal charges or trial—solely on the basis of an administrative warrant signed by the Minister of Defense.
Since the founding of the State of Israel, there have been 21 such administrative warrants issued against Jews. However, under the current Minister of Defense, Yoav Galant, 25 such warrants have already been issued. These warrants, which bypass the judicial process, have led to the imprisonment of many, including fathers of large families, for periods ranging from three to six months.
The Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) appears to be targeting the pioneering settlers of our land with these measures, aiming to weaken our resolve. As there is no legal recourse to challenge these warrants, we have decided to respond by supporting these individuals upon their release. Our initiative is to provide each of them with a grant to help rebuild their lives, as a gesture of our unwavering support and solidarity.
This is our way of strengthening those who are unjustly imprisoned and standing up against these undemocratic measures. We remain committed to supporting our heroic settlers who are steadfast in their dedication to our homeland.
Thank you for your continued support and for standing with us during these challenging times.
Warm regards,
Ayelt Hashachar and Akiva Hacohen
Yitzhar, Shomron
