Habla
The “fabric of life” is maintained. Seemingly. A CP is opened at the appointed time (06:30) and is closed after people have passed through on their way to and from Habla.
But what is the “fabric of life” for a boy in a wheelchair, or for a father with a baby in an infant carrier, who go through the checkpoint, when the man is forced to hold the infant carrier in one hand and push the wheelchair with the other? What is the “fabric of life” for a man who arrives at the CP in a car but the car doesn’t have a passage permit and he has to turn around and go back to Habla?
What is the “fabric of life” for teachers who must pass day after day by the checkpoint, and are obliged to linger for the checking of their identification papers on their way to their pupils? The delay today lasted 11 minutes.

Habla CP (1393)
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.
