'Azzun 'Atma, Wed 3.6.09, Morning

6.50 The checkpoint is empty except for some who arrived at various times.

There are two soldiers where the workers are and a DCO representative. They say that this morning there were no problems. The Palestinians say too that it was fairly good. On the other side of the road workers still wait most of who are going to work in the settlements. Every now and again an Israeli car stops and the workers are gathered into it some as has been determined earlier and some by change. Not all are from Azzun Atma, They say that at the checkpoint at the bottom of Azzun the pressure is great.  By the time we left nearly all the workers had been collected and we left at 7.30 for Huwwara.
