Happy Hebron Liberation day!
On this day in 1967, Israel liberated the ancient Jewish city of Hebron during the Six Day War.
Located 32 kilometers south of Jerusalem in the Judean Mountains, Hebron is one of the oldest Jewish communities in the world.
 
The city dates back to biblical times with Abraham's purchase of the Cave of Patriarchs, where the Jewish Patriarchs and Matriarchs are buried. It was also there that King David was anointed king and ruled for seven years before moving the kingdom to Jerusalem.
 
There had been a continuous Jewish community living in Hebron until the 1929 Arab Riots, where 67 Jews were ruthlessly murdered and the rest were forced to flee.
 
Today some 1,000 Jews and 215,000 Arabs live in Hebron, with the Jews concentrated to a small enclave in the ancient city with access to only 3% of the city. At the same time, the Arabs residents of Hebron have access to 100% of it.
Hebron is perhaps the most vilified city in Israel by far-Left anti-Israel activists who use the city to spread lies about Israel.
