Three women with permits want to cross to visit someone who’s given birth, bringing plastic bags with clothes – gifts to the new born. They’re not permitted to take two of the bags through. The explanation: “Clothing isn’t permitted through this checkpoint.” The answer from the DCO: “We’ll handle it. You don’t have to call us again.” Bottom line – the gate closed, the bags were returned. Another explanation: “Merchandise isn’t permitted through this checkpoint.”

The gate is shut. Very few are waiting A military hummer with 4 soldiers arrive but without the key. We try to find out the reason for the delay and understand from the soldiers that the fence had been touched somewhere and the soldiers have been summoned for checking.

B. lives at Habla and his entry permit is for CP 109 he wishes to enter by the Habla CP, because of the heat, the fatigue and the fast. He was checked and was denied. He has a work permit for Israel. The soldiers remain hardhearted, even a phone call to the CPO is of no avail and the exhausted Palestinian remains waiting. "I have an entry permit to Israel and I don't have a permit to return home" he says and points in the direction of Habla.
