The Shomron

Sa-Nur (Hebrew: שא-נור‎, lit. Flame Carrier) was a Jewish town in the northern Shomron under the administrative jurisdiction of Shomron Regional Council. Prior to its demolition, Sa-nur was home to 43 families.  In September 2005 its 105 residents were evicted and IDF soldiers began dismantling Sanur as part of Israel's unilateral disengagement plan. The demolition of Sa-Nur and Homesh marked the end of the central part of the disengagement plan. The only remaining structure, a synagogue, was buried, in order ot prevent its desecration by the Arabs.

Since the demolition, religious Zionist groups have attempted to return to Sa-nur, in order to rebuild the community. The largest attempt to date took place on May 8, 2008. Following a permitted Independence Day rally in Homesh, a group of 150 set off at night for Sa-nur, including many former residents.
