Morning

Checkpoint 300, 06:30. Not too crowded,
no car queue. Palestinian with blue ID or permits were allowed to
pass. A jeep was standing beside the patrol road by the fence, to
catch those who want to avoid the checkpoint. A jeep stopped by the
fruit shop in the crossroad, checking IDs, and another jeep right
after the turn to Al-Khader.

Al-Khadr: No soldiers. Some Palestinians said that since the Hudna,
things have been better. The place was quiet and not too
crowed.

Eztion: In general it was very quiet, not too many people or cars.
By the east side of the cars' checkpoint, where the fence is, there
is an opening where Palestinians stood in line. A soldier on the
other side summoned them one by one. Same passage rules. A couple
who had permission to see a doctor, but no permit to enter, was not
allowed to pass. The soldiers were nice enough. All in all a very
quite shift.
