RAMALLAH, November 23, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces on Sunday morning closed the entrance to the village of Atara and set up a military checkpoint at the entrance to Nabi Saleh, located north and northwest of Ramallah in the central West Bank.
According to our correspondent, the closure of Atara's main entrance forced residents to use long alternative routes to reach their destinations.
The forces also erected a military checkpoint near the colonial settlement of Halamish, built on the lands of Nabi Saleh, where soldiers stopped several vehicles, searched them, and inspected passengers’ IDs, causing a severe traffic jam.
The entrance serves the villages and towns of Beit Rima, Deir Ghassana, Kafr Ein, and Qarawa, as well as the city of Salfit and nearby villages.
