Three Jewish artisans have returned to Hebron to reside in the Jewish district. Sixty Yemenite Jews are also planning to settle here.

Since the riots in 1929 only one Jew has returned to Hebron which was the scene of a massacre. Dr. Daniel Elkana, who was saved by his Arab landlord from the attacks of Arabs, returned to Hebron on August 10 at the request of his former neighbors and landlord who guaranteed his safety.
