Israeli forces today sealed off the entrances to Sinjil town, northeast of the West Bank city of Ramallah, according to local sources.
They said that Israeli forces used a bulldozer to close the entrances to the town with earth mounds, denying the town residents and other from the surrounding area access into and out of the town.
Israeli severely restricts Palestinians’ freedom of movement through a complex combination of approximately 100 fixed checkpoints, flying checkpoints, settler-only roads and various other physical obstructions.
Closures besides to other measures, taken under the guise of security, are intended to entrench Israel’s 54-year-old military occupation of the West Bank and its settler colonial project which it enforces with routine and frequently deadly violence against Palestinians.
