geography

The place Nitibe is located in the center of the administrative office

Until 2014, the administrative offices were still referred to as sub-districts . Before the 2015 territorial reform, Nitibe had an area of ​​301.72 km². Now it is 299.50 km².

Nitibe divided into five Sucos : Banafi , Beneufe ( Bene Ufe , Bebe Ufe ), Lelaufe ( Lela Ufe ), Suniufe ( Suni Ufe ) and Usitaco ( Usi Taco ) with the place Nitibe . The main town is the coastal town of Citrana in Suco Beneufe. The highest mountain is the Manoleu at 1171  m in the center of Beneufe. The island of Fatu Sinai ( Batek ), the ownership of which was previously disputed between Indonesia and East Timor, is five kilometers off the coast of the Nitibes administrative office near Citrana . In the meantime, East Timor waived claims. An area around Naktuka , the so-called Citrana Triangle, was controversial until 2019 .

history

In September 2009, a group of Indonesian soldiers drove to the East Timorese village of Naktuka (Suco Beneufe) and began taking photos of newly constructed buildings. They were thrown out by the residents and sent back across the border. On May 26, 2010, 28 armed soldiers from the Indonesian armed forces broke into Beneufe and raised their flags in Naktuka , one kilometer from the border. On May 29, 2010, they destroyed the two houses of two social institutions in Suco. On June 24, an armed unit of the Indonesian army again entered the Naktuka area one kilometer, but withdrew when they encountered a unit of the East Timorese border police. Residents see a connection with the unclear demarcation between the countries. This was the worst incident between the two countries since East Timor's independence in 2002. On March 4, 2011, Indonesian soldiers violated the border again and drove residents from the disputed strip of land. On October 28, 2011, Indonesian soldiers shot at East Timorese who had illegally crossed the border in a car.
