Muhanned is a resident and Palestinian activist with the group "Youth Against Settlements", a non-violent, local Palestinian organization fighting for an end to occupation in the city of Hebron, located in the West Bank. Hebron is the largest city in the West Bank and the only city with settlements in the heart of it.
