Habla

 

06:35 – The gate opens, it's a rainy day, the line is short, people exiting complain about the slow checking. One of the workers has taken charge of the line which is moving forwards quietly.

07:30 – When we ask the military police where the cars to school  are we realize that since somebody burnt and damaged the gate yesterday no vehicles can cross. And nobody is in a hurry to repair the lock. We stay on for a while to see what will happen. Food and other kinds of goods are transferred from one car to another. The teachers who were supposed to reach the school in Ramadin in the evening walked through the gate to wait for their transportation.

We take our time until suddenly we realize that time has passed and we won't be able to reach ‘Azzun ‘Atma before 8:15, so we drive home.

      The Habla checkpoint (1393) was established on the lands of the residents of Qalqilya, on the short road that

      connected it for centuries to the nearby town of Habla. The separation barrier intersects this road twice and cut off the residents of Qalqilya from their lands in the seam zone.(between the fence and the green line).
      There is a passage under Road 55 that connects Qalqilya to the sabotage This agricultural barrier is used by the farmers and nursery owners established along Road 55 from the Green Line and on both sides of the kurkar road leading to the checkpoint.
      This agricultural checkpoint serves the residents of Arab a-Ramadin al-Janoubi (detached from the West Bank), who pass through it to the West Bank and back to their homes. The opening hours (3 times a day) of this agricultural checkpoint are longer than usual, about an hour (recently shortened to 45 minutes), and are coordinated with the transportation hours of a-Ramadin children studying in the occupied in the West Bank.
