Friday, 29 February, 2008 Palestinians from At-Tuwani and the South Hebron Hills gathered together to remove a roadblock that the Israeli military had placed on the main access road for the region. Women began the action by removing the earth mound first by hand, and later using small shovels. Palestinian women and children also successfully moved a large concrete block from the road entrance, clearing the way for vehicle traffic. Over sixty men from the area gathered for noon prayers at the roadblock.
