Activities in kindergartens in South Hebron Hills
9:30 a.m. – 13:00 p.m.
At first I would like to thank you and all the families who visited the Mediterranean coast. You have given them a great opportunity to visit the land of ancestors. Their happiness was great and the visit left a great impact on them.
The most important topic is the visit of Huda kindergarten staff in Yatta. The visit took place on Saturday 20 July. I was accompanied on this honorable visit by Zada. A meeting was held with Huda (Haula was absent from the meeting because of the birth). During the meeting, Zada and Huda reviewed the training program that will be presented to the teachers in the coming stages and monitored the most important training needs. After the meeting, she took a tour around the kindergarten and asked Huda to remove the bad and dangerous games in the park and stressed the need to provide the garden with sand or artificial grass.
After the completion of Huda’s visit, we went to Umm al-Khair to see the status of the kindergarten there. Fortunately we met with mothers and children of the area there because of their gathering for medical examinations at the community center where the Red Crescent Society carried out a medical day for the people of the region. We met the girls and the children, who expressed their happiness at the opening of the kindergarten there. We inspected the unfinished kindergarten room there.

South Hebron Hills
South Hebron Hills is a large area in the West Bank's southern part.
Yatta is a major city in this area: right in the border zone between the fertile region of Hebron and its surroundings and the desert of the Hebron Hills. Yatta has about 64,000 inhabitants.
The surrounding villages are called Masafer Yatta (Yatta's daughter villages). Their inhabitants subsist on livestock and agriculture. Agriculture is possible only in small plots, especially near streams. Most of the area consists of rocky terraces.Since the beginning of the 1980s, many settlements have been established on the agricultural land cultivated by the Palestinians in the South Hebron Hills region: Carmel, Maon, Susia, Masadot Yehuda, Othniel, and more. Since the settlements were established and Palestinians cultivation areas have been reduced; the residents of the South Hebron Hills have been suffering from harassment by the settlers. Attempts to evict and demolish houses have continued, along with withholding water and electricity. The military and police usually refrain from intervening in violent incidents between settlers and Palestinians do not enforce the law when it comes to the investigation of extensive violent Jewish settlers. The harassment in the South Hebron Hills includes attacking and attempting to burn residential tents, harassing dogs, harming herds, and preventing access to pastures.
There are several checkpoints in the South Hebron Hills, on Routes 317 and 60. In most of them, no military presence is apparent, but rather an array of pillboxes monitor the villages. Roadblocks are frequently set up according to the settlers and the army's needs. These are located at the Zif Junction, the Dura-al Fawwar crossing, and the Sheep Junction at the southern entrance to Hebron.
