Collection of photographs - the aggressive evacuation of the Adar courtyard in the Yamit region. March 1982


14 photographs taken by SVEN NACKSTRAND during the violent evacuation of the Hatzer Adar outpost in northeastern Sinai. March 1982.


In the photos: a group of female soldiers dragging one of the settlers by force, an IDF crane designed to pull the settlers over the roof of a house where they were fortified, mothers holding their children from the terror of the army, and more. In one of the photographs, Baruch Marzel is seen wearing a tallit and tefillin, led by two IDF soldiers. Marzel, who was one of the residents of the moshav, was in charge of maintaining wireless contact with those who opposed the evacuation of Yamit during the evacuation and of updating the residents on military operations. In another photo, can seen the barbed wire fences on a temporary wall built by the residents in order to prevent the army from penetrating, and more.


The Adar outpost was established shortly before its evacuation in northeastern Sinai, 12 kilometers from Moshav Neot Sinai, adjacent to the Haruvit junction. It was one of the settlements of Hevel Yamit and was established in December 1981, by the movement to stop the withdrawal from Sinai, about six months before the IDF withdrew from Sinai. The moshav was evacuated by the IDF on March 3, 1982, in one of the most difficult and aggressive evacuation operations carried out by a combined force of Border Police personnel, paratroopers, armored personnel, trainees of a radar course and Nahal soldiers from a religious nucleus. In the day of the evacuation, MK Yuval Ne'eman of the Tehiyah movement, who opposed the withdrawal, was present in the courtyard of Adar. On the evening of that day, Ne'eman warned on a broadcast in the "Mabat" edition of Channel One that the manner of evacuation had in fact led to a situation in which we were close to bloodshed. He described dragging people into wire, injuring them and using axes, and warned the Begin government not to shed Jewish blood. During the evacuation, the settlers erected the Adar C courtyard, the Adar D courtyard, and finally the Adar E courtyard. They were all evacuated one by one.
