JORDAN VALLEY, Friday, April 7, 2023 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation army shut down today the Hamra military checkpoint in the northern West Bank, blocking movement of the Palestinian traffic, according to local sources.

The sources told WAFA that the Israeli occupation forces blocked traffic through the checkpoint in both directions. The checkpoint straddles the road connecting the northern provinces of the West Bank with Jericho and the neighboring villages in the east of the territory.

In the meantime, extremist Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian-owned greenhouses in the village of Humsa al-Tehta, located a few kilometres to the north of the checkpoint.

Earlier today, Israeli media reports claimed that three colonial Israeli settlers were shot to death not far away from the checkpoint.
