BETHLEHEM, March 5, 2025 (WAFA) – Extremist colonists Wednesday morning closed the primary entrance to the village of Marah Rabah south of Bethlehem, according to a local official.

Hussein Al-Sheikh, the head of the Marah Rabah Village Council, informed WAFA that the colonists obstructed the village entrance with an iron gate, thereby restricting the movement of residents in and out of the village.

Al-Sheikh further stated that the colonists intensified the hardships faced by the local Palestinian population by sealing off the entrance with large boulders positioned beside the iron gate.
