בוקר

Beit Iba. 8.30.
The checkpoint is still being renovated and the present situation is not efficient and the line of people lengthens. Everyone is checked against the list. The young men lift their shirts. We met a new sergeant of the DCO and with his help tried to improve the efficiency but it did not help. The reply we got …"orders".

A perimeter checkpoint west of the city of Nablus. Operated from 2001 to 2009 as one of the four permanent checkpoints info-icon closing on Nablus: Beit Furik and Awarta to the east and Hawara to the south. A pedestrian-only checkpoint, where MachsomWatch volunteers were present daily for several hours in the morning and afternoon to document the thousands of Palestinians waiting for hours in long queues with no shelter in the heat or rain, to leave the district city for anywhere else in the West Bank.
From March 2009, as part of the easing of the Palestinian movement in the West Bank, it was abolished, without a trace, and without any adverse change in the security situation.
