Habla Checkpoint: Continuous and quiet passage in the afternoon
Continuous and quiet passage.
Following reports of issues at the checkpoint during the afternoon hours, we headed out during this time frame for this shift. We were told the checkpoint opens at 5:00 PM; however, according to the soldiers, it is scheduled to be open from 4:30 PM to 5:15 PM. We arrived shortly after that window began, and the checkpoint opened exactly then, 15-minute delay from the scheduled start.
The passage was continuous, with both pedestrians and vehicles crossing from both directions. Ultimately, the checkpoint closed at 5:30 PM. Although the soldiers shouted at those arriving late, they still permitted them to pass.

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.
