Bethlehem

Al-Khadr: Pedestrians and transits go
east and west. Busses also take passengers to Hebron, road 60 is
open today and there is no closure. There seems to be a problem at
Wadi-Nar, according to the drivers. There is no passage whatsoever
for cars and pedestrians, which means the way to Jericho or
Ramallah is blocked. This, apparently, is due to the construction
of the fence.

Etzion: Traffic flowing in both directions, pedestrians are not
even being checked, cooperative and pleasant soldiers.

Bethlehem (Checkpoint 300): People said they had waited for about
an hour to cross (some with blue ID). Indeed, the waiting queue was
long. The 2 female soldiers had a metal detector -- a first for
us.
