abstract
  • Aqabah (Arabic: العقبة‎, Hebrew: אלעקבה‎ and also called Al Aqabah, Aqaba, or Al Aqaba) is a Palestinian village in the northeastern West Bank, with an estimated population of 300 people, which is being targeted for demolition by the Israeli Civil Administration (the IDF agency responsible for controlling the West Bank). Located in Area C of the West Bank on the edge of the Jordan Valley, the village is under complete Israeli military control and civil jurisdiction. The Israeli Civil Administration has so far issued 39 Demolition Orders against the houses and structures of the village, including the medical center, an internationally-funded kindergarten, the houses, and the village mosque. A petition to the Israeli Supreme Court asking the court to cancel the demolition orders on the basis of an existing land-use plan was rejected on April 17, 2008. The villagers, led by Mayor Haj Sami Sadeq, have initiated a local and international campaign, in cooperation with several Israeli and American human rights organizations, to save the village. The campaign has included taking Israelis and foreign diplomats to visit Aqabah, lobbying the Quartet and asking for its intervention, and conducting a US speaking tour with the participation of Mayor Sadeq and prominent Israeli architect Shmuel Groag. The goal of the campaign is to encourage the Israeli authorities to authorize the land-use plans and allow the village to stand.
