Protesting settlers attempting to set up new outpost near Hebron
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleDozens of settlers march on a hill in the southern West Bank to set up a new outpost as a protest against what they say is a worsening security situation.
The outpost, called Givat Hamevaser, is situated to the north of Kiryat Arba, a hard-line settlement on the outskirts of Hebron.
Taking part in the protest, which includes the setting up of several trailer homes, are leaders of the settlement and several families.
The action “is a continuation of moves to strengthen Jewish settlement in the Judea region and a protest against the prevailing security situation in Judea and Samaria,” one organizer says, according to the Ynet news site, using the biblical names for the West Bank.
