According a report, Israel has announced to build a yehiva on the samarian Evyater hilltop. Reportedly, yeshiva is an Israeli institution that focuses on the study of traditional Jewish texts. Studying the Tanakh is considered worship in the jewish tradition.
Reportedly, there are Jewish Palestinians living in Samaria. The tradition probably dates back to the 8th Century bc when Assyria recognised Samaria with Babylonians and other races, and pronounced a policy of intermarriage between Palestinians and the remaining Israeli samaritans.
According to biblical text, following the conquest of Samaria, it was reported to the king of Assyria, ‘The people you deported and settled in the towns of Samaria do not know what the god of that country requires. He has sent lions among them that are killing them off, because the people do not know what he requires.’ So the king of Assyria sent Jewish priests to Samaria to minister o the people.
Though according to biblical text, other races colonised Samaria, a theory is they mainly returned to their homeland. According to reports, ancient Babylonians of modern day Iraq did not. To this day, Palestinian refugees rarely leave refugee camps in Iraq and elsewhere. This is believed to be political.
