Jews from Kiryat Arba in Judea are confronting hostile Arabs and their Jewish sympathizers who attempted to overrun the Chazon David neighborhood Friday morning.

The report comes from the Kiryat Arba Action Group, and additional details have not been made available.

A welcoming ceremony for David Sayed, a soldier who was jailed for refusing to evict Jews from Hevron, will take place shortly at Chazon David. Leftist media reports say there are 30 people present from the Jewish nationalist side and about 50 from the other side, with police in between.
