People are carrying large bags full of presents and candies for the festival [Id el-Fitr]. Seven men and a woman held in the pen. The soldier, D., whose name is on his tag in three languages, says that there is an incident in the sector, and therefore it’s difficult to get Ids checked over the phone. The computer is down. Within 20 minutes all are released, and others take their place.The soldiers are amply polite.The surroundings of the checkpoint are very filthy, apart from the area where the soldiers are standing. The weapon in the security dugout is aimed at people passing through the gate. Vehicle Checkpoint Here the traffic is also light. Waiting time is very short.
