Area H 2 in Hebron is almost always deserted. We spoke with a Palestinian critic from Jerusalem, who also used the phrase “ghost town.”
Nahal soldiers replaced Golani soldiers and this may be the reason for the large number of military vehicles.
Construction on the disputed house is nearing completion, including ornamental planters.
The lords of the land are changing the Palestinian construction style to a Jewish style.
The new Jewish neighborhoods are being built with all their might, instead of the military camp.
Most of the shift was devoted to a visit to the Dana family (below Kiryat Arba) whose children were photographed by our heroic soldiers. We did not take pictures because of their sensitivity to photographs that appear on the Internet in Hebrew. Our visit was received with real joy.

    • According to Wye Plantation Accords (1997), Hebron is divided in two: H1 is under Palestinian Authority control, H2 is under Israeli control. In Hebron there are 170,000 Palestinian citizens, 60,000 of them in H2. Between the two areas are permanent checkpoints, manned at all hours, preventing Palestinian movement between them and controlling passage of permit holders such as teachers and schoolchildren. Some 800 Jews live in Avraham Avinu Quarter and Tel Rumeida, on Givat HaAvot and in the wholesale market.

       

      Checkpoints observed in H2:

       

      1. Bet Hameriva CP- manned with a pillbox
      2. Kapisha quarter CP (the northern side of Zion axis) - manned with a pillbox
      3. The 160 turn CP (the southern side of Zion axis) - manned with a pillbox
