Obstacles

In order to realize its objectives, the Hebron Old City Rehabilitation Committee has endeavored to overcome a number of political, technical, and administrative obstacles, including the poverty that remains a major problem in the Old City. Many social problems that are a direct result of Israeli control also prevail.

          The owners and residents of these buildings have cooperated with the Rehabilitation Committee in order to overcome Israeli oppression.

          Prohibited buildings were restored secretly and behind closed doors. Some of the restoration works have been completed and attempts are under way to carry out the rest.
