Trapped by the Separation Wall, many people from the Hebron area are
forced to make a living by digging for metal in the Yatta dump yard.
The Garbage Cage describes the life of these people, many children
among them, who in spite of their so called low position hold tight to

A few months ago, the Israeli military published figures on this year’s
recruitment, regarding the number of soldiers enlisted and the units they have
chosen to join. The statistics revealed that 25 percent of 18-year-old Jewish
men, and 40 percent of Jewish women don’t join the military for various reasons.
For the first time, the number of non-draftees has reached a quarter of the
Jewish population. The proportion of soldiers who leave the military in
their first few months of service is around 18 percent, a number that is also
on the rise. Moreover, the demand for serving in combat units is decreasing,
falling in the course of one year by 1.5 percent. The details regarding reserve
soldiers were not published, but it is known that their rate of service
avoidance is increasing even faster.
