As northerners sent home, hard-hit Metula says more time needed to heal war wounds

Metula, a town in northern Israel, is struggling to recover from the devastating effects of the recent war with Hezbollah. Many residents are hesitant to return due to the extensive damage and lack of basic services. The government is urging people to come back as a symbol of victory, but the mayor argues that it is still too soon. The city is petitioning for a postponement of the return until July 1 to focus on rebuilding. Concerns about the potential for future fighting and the need for infrastructure and services to be restored are also contributing to the hesitation to return.
