Morning

6:15 - Heavy rain, still dark.  The checkpoint is closed, but near it, on the way leading from the nurseries, a military vehicle is standing.  After a short period of time, the vehicles turns in the direction of road #55 and the checkpoint remains closed.  Meanwhile, people have gathered, wanting to go out in the direction of Habla.  More and more people continue to come, as well as vehicles carrying plants and merchandise for the stores near the checkpoint.  And the checkpoint is closed.

At 6:45 we rang the DCO.  The officer, A., answered and said that the car was on its way to the checkpoint carrying the soldiers who were supposed to operate it.

7:12 - the car arrived on the "patrol road", with soldiers.  The system of the groups of 5 (people approach the turnstyle in groups of 5, wait, go to the inspection room and exit together) is still preserved and the vehicles are checked simultaneously.

7:43 - about 30 people still waiting next to the entrance to the checkpoint from the direction of Habla.

7:54 - The last 9 people being checked have exited the checkpoint.  The checkpoint is closed.

We got the impression that there were more military vehicles than usual in the last few days;  they traveled on road #55, in the area next to the checkpoint and also between the buildings which are in the fields next to it.
