Impact of the War in Northern Israel

Residents of northern Israel remain hesitant to return home after 14 months of conflict, uncertain about the durability of a recent ceasefire. Many families, like the Racines and Razs, have been displaced and face the daunting task of rebuilding their lives and homes that were destroyed in missile attacks. While some are eager to return, the lingering threat from Hezbollah rocket strikes creates a pervasive sense of danger, leaving families fearful for their children's safety. The mayor of Metullah expresses skepticism about whether most displaced residents will come back, emphasizing the need for lasting peace and reconstruction before they can fully return.
