Israel continues closure checkpoints surrounding the Holy city of Jerusalem

The Israeli occupation forces continue to close the checkpoints surrounding the occupied city of Jerusalem, for the third day in a row.

According to local sources, the occupation forces continue to close the Qalandiya checkpoints, the Shuafat camp, the checkpoint near the Bilal bin Rabah Mosque, Beit Iksa, and the Al-Jib checkpoint to the movement of Jerusalemites, which led to obstructing the movement of citizens, while allowing entry and exit at the Al-Za’im and Hizma checkpoints only.

In addition, the occupation forces obstructed citizens’ access to the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque since the morning hours, and allowed only elderly citizens to enter the mosque.

It is noteworthy that the occupation forces imposed a comprehensive closure on the northern governorates yesterday, in light of the rapid developments in the Gaza Strip.
