E1 (Jerusalem)

E1 (Jerusalem)

E1, also named "Mevasseret Adumim" ("Harbinger of Ma'ale Adumim," similar to Mevasseret Zion just outside Jerusalem), is a mostly empty area of 4.6 square miles in Ma'ale Adumim. It is bordered by the French Hill neighborhood of Jerusalem to the west, Abu Dis to the southwest, Kedar to the south, Ma'ale Adumim to the east, and Almon to the north.

The headquarters of the Samaria and Judea district of the Israeli Police Department are built in E1, scheduled to be operational in January or February 2008.

Its status has been disputed as part of the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict regarding the status of East Jerusalem and Ma'ale Adumim.
