The checkpoint offers handicapped access. However, in order to open the gate one needs to locate the soldier with the key for the gate. When the soldier and the key are located it turns out that the gate opens in one direction only (in and not out).

First Friday of Ramadan. Attempts to cross into Jerusalem. Many families were not able to bring their children, as they had to have birth certificates and be under 10 years old. Men over 50 and women over 45 were allowed in.
