The article is new enough (expanded fivefold within five days before nomination). The hook is interested and not too long. Rules say " Each fact in the hook must be supported in the article by at least one inline citation to a reliable source, appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact. " In case of this hook assertion it is cited only at the end of paragraph.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 09:39, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

Ok, I´ve fixed it, so that the citation appears at the end of each sentence, Cheers, Huldra (talk) 13:08, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. I don't understand a couple of things with this article: why this article does not clearly say that this place is in Israel and why it instead says that this place belongs to citizens of Israel who are Arabs (like there is some sort of connection with soil and ethnicity). Though, I don't think this is something that affects this review, so I will pass it.
