Teenagers renovated the spring. Binyamin Regional Council head Israel Gantz said that returning to the spring is a victory of life over terror.

A week and a half after the attack in which Natanel Shokron HY"D was murdered at Ein Ria spring near Neve Tzuf, hundreds of participants arrived this morning (Thursday) at the spring for a musical Shacharit and Hallel prayer in his memory and to strengthen his family. The spring, where Shokron came to immerse with his son on the eve of Yom Kippur, filled with the sounds of prayer and song. Teenagers mobilized immediately after the attack to renovate the spring and its surroundings, out of a desire to continue life at the site. The prayer was held during Chol Hamoed Sukkot at the initiative of the Binyamin and Samaria Council, in partnership with Binyamin Plus and the Ministry of Settlement and National Missions, accompanied by the band "Shir Chadash" and words of encouragement from rabbis. Binyamin Regional Council head Israel Gantz stated: "Returning to the spring is a victory of life over terror. The terrorists seek to instill fear and drive us from our land. We will continue to build, strengthen the settlement, and ensure the security of our residents through determined action against terror. They will not defeat us."
