A group of some 40 Jewish youth from the Hevron Jewish Community settled a new piece of land near Admot Yeshai this morning - and promptly became the target of Arab gunfire. IDF forces engaged in a battle with terrorists on Shalhevet Hill (Abu Sneineh), and an IDF soldier was moderately wounded by a bullet to the leg. The army demands that the children leave the area, and \"negotiations\" on the matter are underway.
The area of the new would-be settlement is adjacent to the Jewish complex of Tel Romeida, where several Jewish families have lived for close to 20 years. The youth plan to name their new neighborhood Nachalat Shlomo, after Admot Yeshai resident Rabbi Shlomo Ra\'anan-Kook, murdered in his home by a terrorist three years ago.
