Al Hadidiyyah and Al Ras al Ahmar – an Overview:
Al Ras al Ahmar and Al Hadidiyyah are located to the east of Tubas city. They are inhabited by around 400 people spreading over more than 70 dunums. The locals depend largely on agriculture and herding in their living. The Israelis have been trying to evict the residents of Al Hadidiyyah by any means including demolition threats, actual demolitions, land confiscations, etc; while the Israelis claim that the village is located within a "military zone" despite the Israeli Supreme Court order that granted them 91 dunums to reside in. It is surrounded by the Israeli colonies of Beqaot and Roi (west); and Hamadat (east)
