NABLUS, February 3, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli forces obstructed on Monday evening the access of an ambulance at a military checkpoint near the village of Majdal Bani Fadil southeast of Nablus, according to local sources.

Sources told WAFA that Israeli forces briefly held an ambulance attempting to leave the village of Aqraba at the checkpoint and prevented it from passing through.

Israeli forces have consistently impeded the movement of ambulances at their military checkpoints and gates. Since the implementation of the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip on January 19, 2025, Israel has intensified its military measures in the West Bank by establishing additional checkpoints and iron gates at the entrances to Palestinian towns and villages.

According to the Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission, the number of military checkpoints and iron gates erected by Israel in the West Bank has reached 898, including 18 new iron gates installed since the beginning of 2025. Furthermore, 146 iron gates have been set up since October 7, 2023.
