West Bank town draws inspiration from Gaza ‘night confusion’ activities to confront settlers
Some West Bank villages and towns have drawn inspiration from the Gaza Strip night confusion activities as they embarked on confronting settlement outposts established on their lands, and the town of Beita is now serving as a model.
As night falls, hundreds of young men head to Jabal Sbeih (Mount Sbeih) and the surrounding area in the town of Beita in the northern West Bank to start organizing various activities, including what is known as “night confusion,” which lasts until dawn.
The aim of these activities is to disturb the settlers who established a settlement outpost called Eviatar atop Jabal Sbeih.
Since the beginning of the construction of the outpost on Jabal Sbeih on May 3, the residents of Beita began to resist the settlers as they were inspired by the “night confusion” activities during the return marches that erupted in March 2018 in the Gaza Strip near the barbed wire fence with Israel.
The young men in Beita have been engaging in such activities on a daily basis.
