Habla Checkpoint: A new high fence was erected between the checkpoint and the nurseries
Habla checkpoint is supposed to open at 13.00. We arrived a little before and there were soldiers who came to talk with us and at the designated time they opened the checkpoint. There were few pedestrians in both directions as well as trucks and tractors with seedlings and tools.
Everything went quietly and the soldiers are efficient and the transition was easy for everyone. Our conversation with them also went smoothly and even though they had different opinions than ours, a discussion developed about what their actions were here. They had no idea what the green line was
A huge, strong and rigid fence has been erected between Khabla and the nurseries area and it will be difficult to pass over it or through it.
We left Habla checkpoint at 1:30 p.m. when they closed it as planned.
At M’s nursery they are working hard. M himself is full of criticism of the politics of both sides.
