Al Ramadeen gathering, the like of any other residential community in the West bank, has been a target for the Israeli aggressions; not a single structure has been spared from a demolition order. A total number of 31 orders threatening 110 people.
Opposite to Al Ramadeen, stands the Israeli colony of Zufim; the colony has been expanding over Qalqiliyya and Jayyous while taking over natural resources in the area. The colonists are using the snake-like segregation wall to implement colonial plans aiming to capture as much lands as possible.
Area and Location:
Al Ramadeen is located to the north east of Qalqiliyya, behind the wall and 700 meters away from Zufin colony. There is also an Israeli military encampment tens of meters away from the gathering. 90 people inhabit the area.

The inhabitants originate from the Ber Sheva area; they were displaced in 1948 as a result of the Israeli conquest. They took refuge in southern Hebron before being forced to move again due to the lack of resources. They moved to the northern part of the West Bank forming to gatherings, Al Ramadeen al Shamali, north of Qalqiliya, and Al Ramadeen al Janoubi, south of the city.
