Habla Checkpoint (1393)
A rainy day.
We arrived at 06:20. The CP was open (06:15-07:45). No persons waiting to be checked and and to pass are to be seen. They arrive directly at the checking room.
Few people pass today at the checkpoint, few as compared to days on which it doesn’t rain. The five by five checking system is maintained. The cars which arrive from Habla begin moving in the direction of the plant nurseries at about07:00 .
The children’s busses don’t pass. There is no school owing to Christmas, we assume.
We have a very interesting and positive conversation with A.
07:45 – a car arrives at great speed from the direction of the plant nurseries. Part of the CP is already closed. The driver hopes he will be let through all the same, but no, he is obliged to return and go back in the direction he has come from.
07:46 – The CP is being shut.

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.
