Girls of the Hills women’s settlement activity

The article focuses on the activity of the "Hill Girls," which is part of the settlement movement in the West Bank. Women and young women participate in establishing and consolidating settler outposts on hills and in areas surrounding Palestinian communities. Their activities include farming and herding, as well as providing daily support to settlers in these outposts, with the aim of turning these areas into permanent residential settlements. The presence of women is also used to limit Palestinians' ability to oppose these encroachments, with backing from settlement associations that provide them with salaries and resources. Additionally, the activity involves roles beyond agriculture, such as monitoring Palestinians and blocking roads, while promoting the narrative that settlers have a right to the land. This is used to bolster settlement expansion and present it as part of an increasing settler plan, especially in recent times.
