Afternoon

Anabta 16:00 – There are no cars in the direction of Anabta. Everyone who gets here passes without inspection. The line of cars that leave Anabta is short and the traffic is flowing. The soldiers are civil. 16:15 – We leave towards Jubara. Jubara 16:45 – The gate is opened for us pretty fast. We ask the soldier to watch for the gate in 10 minutes when we are due to come back in order to avoid wasting time waiting. He agrees. It turns out that we return one and a half hours later, concerning which I am sending a separate report that I have chosen to name: Occupation "logic" or Occupation ad absurdum.

Location Description

Anabta checkpoint

See all reports for this place

The checkpoint is located south of the village of Anabta, at the intersection of Road 60 (leading to Nablus at the entrance to Area A), with Road (57, 557, 5576) facing west towards the Einav settlement and the checkpoint at the exit from the West Bank - Figs checkpoint.
Until 2010 we used to watch the intersection and report the long columns created due to a slow inspection of the vehicles in both directions.

Jubara (Kafriat) Checkpoint

See all reports for this place

The Jabra checkpoint was on Road 557, south of Tulkarm, on the side of the Figs Pass, which is located within the Palestinian Authority (a few kilometers east of the Green Line), and serves as an entry barrier from the territories to Israel.

The checkpoint to the village of Jubara, which until 2013 was in the seam area info-icon , blocked and surrounded by a fence, was intended for the passage of the family members of the house next to the checkpoint, and also for the MachsomWatch volunteers (with special permission only), on their way to checkpoint 753. on the other side of the village.

The soldiers supervising the "fig crossing" also supervised the crossing at this checkpoint, in our shifts we often waited a long time until the key was found and the gate opened. The checkpoint was abolished and became part of the separation fence that was moved west following the High Court.
