The coffee vendor is not permitted to erect a stand, therefore he
is holding a jug with one hand and in the other he has a carrier bag
with plastic cups. Instead of being approached he has to go
searching for customers (this is a more agreeable arrangement for the
authorities).

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.
