Women in the southern Hebron hills turn a cave into a workshop

Palestinian women in a village in the southern Hebron hills are converting an ancient cave into a space for preserving heritage crafts and generating income.

The participants describe the project as a response to pressure on their community to leave.

Caves in the southern Hebron hills have long been used as dwellings and as storage for herding families.
