The H2 area in Al-Khalil/Hebron has turned into a de facto prison for the Palestinian residents, particularly those living within the restricted zone. Since the 7th of October, the Israeli Occupation Forces have enforced stringent laws and restrictions, resulting in severe hardships for the local population. As a CPT team, we currently face significant challenges in accessing the restricted area, as all checkpoints remain closed, with only a few hours of access granted to residents each week for essential tasks.

In our efforts to support the affected families, we strive to connect with them and collect their personal stories. These narratives are vital to our ongoing campaign, “Voices From H2,” which aims to shed light on the experiences and struggles of those living in this confined space.
