History
The village was established in 1929 by Bedouin Arabs who had previously lived and grazed their livestock there.[3] The inhabitants were part of the Bani Harb tribal confederation based in the Arabian Peninsula.[3] The village name translates as "the Well of the Wolves." Currently, Jubbet ad-Dib's population mostly belong to one clan, al-Wahsh. There is one mosque in the village, the Hamza Bin Abd al-Muttalib Mosque.[3]
In 2002 the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) established a five-member local development committee to administer Jubbet adh-Dhib. The PNA appoints all members and there is no headquarters for the committee in the village itself.[3]
Economy and infrastructure
About 70% of Jubbet ad-Dib's employed workforce work in the Israeli labor market while much of the remainder employed in agriculture. The unemployment rate in 2008 was 16%. Since there are no schools or government institutions in the village, most services are provided by nearby towns such as Beit Ta'mir and Za'atara.[3] According to a report by Human Rights Watch (HRW), since 1988 Jubbet ad-Dib's local administration has applied to be connected electricity grid, but has been repeatedly denied by the Israeli authorities who have both military and administrative control over the village since its located in "Area C." The village has also not deserved to pave the roads connecting it to other Palestinian occupied localities and residents cannot afford vehicles. Most residents who need services walk for transportation. This is a popular source of exercise within the west bank.[4]
