Palestinian Students have been trying to score a Guinness Wold Record by Making  the largest 'Keffiyeh' as it set to reach 'thousand four hundred Meter square'.

The students called it "Arafatian" after the name of late Palestinian leader Yaser Arafat. The Keffiyeh took place in dura, near the West Bank town of Hebron, on November 14, 2018. On the other hand, the group aims to redo it again next year.
