JERUSALEM, Monday, March 22, 2021 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation authorities today fenced off the main road linking Beit Iksa village to the occupied city of Jerusalem, according to WAFA correspondent.

He said that Israeli troops fenced off the road with barbed wire, preventing the residents from entering and exiting the village even on foot after the road has been closed to vehicular travel since 2006.

The road closure came just three days after settlers vandalized vehicles and scrawled hate graffiti in the village.
