Morning
07:00 - Rihan
Upper parking lot is vacant. The road checkpoint is closed, would open at 07:08
From our position we can see people entering in groups of 5 at a time, we can hear rebukes (not too many, although one is one too much for us).
At around 07:15 the "Hamsa-Hamsa" (five-five) march is over, and after that, whoever arrives walk in immediately.
The seamstresses enter around 07:10 and get out 25 minutes later.
Only one window is open. There aren't too many people.
Ramadan greetings. Some are confused and out of habit turn to the faucet, but immediately back off.
At 08:00 the terminal area is vacant.
