1.40 A red sign warning about entering into the Palestinian authority stands at Jubara next to gate 753 but we do not know why. The military authority of Israel is absolute in this area and as far as we know there is not a centimetre which belongs to Area A.

We go to Ar-Ras where there is steady traffic but no pressure. The checking is swift and there are no delays. We go on to Ar-Ras with no problems, Kfar Zur, Beit Lid to 557. Road 60 some pleasant hills and almond trees without fences and walls.

Anabta  16.10 When we arrived there was a long line of cars up to the crossroads. The soldiers of the Nachshon Unit man the checkpoint. The lines was the result of the change in shift and after 10 minutes the soldiers sent the cars through very quickly and with no delay.

      The checkpoint is located south of the village of 'Anabta, at the intersection of Road 60 (leading to Nablus at the entrance to Area A), with Road (57, 557, 5576) facing west towards the Einav settlement and the checkpoint at the exit from the West Bank - Figs checkpoint. Until 2010 we used to watch the intersection and report the long columns created due to a slow inspection of the vehicles in both directions.

    •   The Jabra checkpoint was on Road 557, south of Tulkarm, on the side of the Figs Pass, which is located within the Palestinian Authority (a few kilometers east of the Green Line), and serves as an entry barrier from the territories to Israel. The checkpoint to the village of Jubara, which until 2013 was in the seam area, blocked and surrounded by a fence, was intended for the passage of the family members of the house next to the checkpoint, and also for the MachsomWatch volunteers (with special permission only), on their way to checkpoint 753. on the other side of the village. The soldiers supervising the "fig crossing" also supervised the crossing at this checkpoint, in our shifts we often waited a long time until the key was found and the gate opened. The checkpoint was abolished and became part of the separation fence that was moved west following the High Court.
