A new settlement will shortly be established on a hill in the lower Galilee, the Jewish Agency settlement department announced. The first 14 families to settle have already entered a temporary camp in Segev, some 10 miles east of Acre. By September the group, composed of Sabras, is scheduled to number 25 families. The new settlement will be based on specialized work shops. Another group of settlers, all new immigrants from South Africa, is soon also scheduled to settle in the area. The group is now in the absorption center of the nearby town of Sarmiel.
