Bethlehem (300), Etzion DCL, Thu 3.1.13, Afternoon

14:30- Only two cars were parked at the car park.

The waiting hall was empty. No people were observed outside.

Unusually, the place was quiet. A sign on the entrance door explained it all; it said that on Thursdays reception of the general public ends at 14:30.

The place is also closed to the public on Friday, Which means that the Sabbath observance begins on Thursday.

We met an elderly man who was extremely worried. He was desperately looking for his son, who has been taken and had disappeared. We drove him to the police station by the DCO . A courteous officer made inquiries and located the missing son, and helped the father find his son's exact detention place.
