Israel. Sinai, Yamit. The Israeli settlement of Yamit within the Sinai. Settlers are forcibly evicted by The Israeli Army, the evacuation has become iconic in the annals of the extreme right in Israel.
Yamit was an Israeli settlement in the northern part of the Sinai Peninsula with a population of about 2,500 people. It was built on land in an area from which some 1,500 Bedouin families of the Al-Ramilat tribes had been secretly expelled under the direct orders of the then-defense minister Moshe Dayan and Southern Command head Ariel Sharon.The settlement was established during Israel's occupation of the peninsula from the end of the 1967 Six-Day War, until that part of the Sinai was handed over to Egypt in 1982 as part of the terms of the 1979 Israel-Egypt Camp David Peace Treaty.
The Israeli Army forcibly evict the settlers using fire foam who refused to leave.
