BETHLEHEM (Palestine), Feb 25 (Bernama-WAFA) -- Israeli occupation forces on Sunday shut down the Container military checkpoint which straddles the only road connecting the southern regions of the occupied West Bank with the central and northern regions of the territory.
Palestinian security sources told the Palestinian News and Information Agency (WAFA) that the occupation forces completely shut down the checkpoint ahead of the Palestinian vehicles, causing a traffic jam and unexpected delays.
The latest closure comes in the context of the escalating Israeli restrictions on the Palestinian freedom movement in the occupied West Bank, which have seen exponential growth since the outbreak of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip on Oct 7, 2023.
