Deir Sharaf, Mon 3.8.09, Afternoon
15:25 – The red signs, warning not to enter the territory of the Palestinian Authority, are still partially hidden by yellow posters stuck onto them, announcing: "If you see any unusual movement of forces indicating an approaching evacuation, immediately contact the emergency headquarter of the outposts." We saw the same posters 3 weeks ago. No one has bothered to remove them from the signs.
In the heat of the day, the soldiers are huddled together under the shed which is next to the northern inspection booth. The vehicles pass by freely.

Deir Sharaf checkpoint is located west of Nablus and south of the settlement of Shavei Shomron, at the entrance to the village of Deir Sharaf on the road leading to Nablus. The checkpoint was activated in early March 2009 after the Beit Iba checkpoint was closed. Palestinians are allowed through the checkpoint , but not for Israelis. Unlike the checkpoints leading to Qalqilya and Tulkarm, crossing of Israeli Palestinians is only allowed on Saturdays.
