‘Ein Hilwa, like many other communities in the Jordan Valley, are suffering from the endless Israeli measures. All of the village lands, over 3000 dunums in area, are classified as closed military zones which largely affected life there. The inhabitants number was reduced to only 250 people.
The Israeli Army acts like there are no Palestinian residents in the area as trainings take place with no respect to the citizens while colonies are expanding on an unprecedented rate.
