Morning
We arrived at Qalandiya at 06:00. The line was long, extending out into the parking lot. At that point, only 3 gates were open for passage. Twenty minutes later when two additional gates opened, the lines began to move more efficiently and by 07:00, most had passed through the checkpoint.
It seems a shame that during such inclement weather more effort is not made to ensure that the extra gates open sooner.
The vehicular crossing was busy but moved quickly and smoothly.
