\nAt the same time, the government also approved an extension \u2014 with limitations \u2014 of the declaration of a special situation on the home front. The extension will be in effect until July 15. The special situation will apply only to the Gaza Envelope, as it did before Operation Rising Lion \u00a0(“Am Ka\u2019Lavi<\/em>“), since security officials assess that the threat level remains high in this area.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/avocado-1024x683.webp\")
\nAccording to a report published about a month ago by the Tekuma Administration, over 59,000 of the 64,000 residents of the area have already returned to their homes \u2014 a rate of 92%. Of the approximately 1,850 buildings marked for renovation, about 970 have been renovated or are undergoing advanced renovation.

As of day 600 of the war, only 24.3% of residents from Be\u2019eri, Nir Oz, Nahal Oz, Kfar Aza, Re\u2019im, Nirim, Sufa, Holit, Nir Yitzhak, Kissufim, and Netiv HaAsara have returned to live in their permanent homes.<\/p>\n
