JORDAN VALLEY, January 12, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces intensified their restrictions today at the Tayasir and Hamra military checkpoints in the northern Jordan Valley, northeast of the West Bank, leading to severe traffic congestion and hindering the movement of Palestinian citizens.
Local sources reported that the increased restrictions at both checkpoints since the early morning hours caused long traffic delays, obstructing the daily movement of residents.
The Israeli military has been tightening restrictions at these checkpoints for over a year, with frequent closures, but the measures have significantly escalated over the past week.
These checkpoints are key transit points for Palestinians in the area, and the heightened restrictions exacerbate the difficulties faced by locals in accessing essential services and moving freely within the occupied territory.
