Key points about Hebron:

1. Historical Significance: Hebron is one of the oldest cities in the region, with a history dating back to biblical times. It's considered a holy city in Judaism, Islam, and Christianity, primarily due to the Cave of the Patriarchs, believed to be the burial site of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
2. Demographics: The city is predominantly Palestinian, with a small community of Jewish settlers living in the old city center.
3. Political Status: Since the 1997 Hebron Protocol, the city has been divided into two sectors: H1 (about 80% of the city), controlled by the Palestinian Authority, and H2 (20%), under Israeli military control.
4. Economy: Hebron is a significant economic hub, contributing about 33% of the West Bank's GDP. It's known for industries such as glassware, ceramics, limestone quarrying, and shoe manufacturing.
5. Cultural Heritage: The old city of Hebron was declared a Palestinian World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2017. It features well-preserved Mamluk-era architecture.
6. Tensions: The city has been a flashpoint in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with tensions between Palestinian residents and Jewish settlers, particularly in the H2 area.
7. Agriculture: The surrounding area is known for its fertile land, particularly for grape cultivation.
8. Education: Hebron is home to two universities: Hebron University and Palestine Polytechnic University.

Hebron's complex history, religious significance, and current political situation make it a microcosm of the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict, reflecting many of the challenges and tensions present in the region.
