There are usually very few people here at this hour. Today at 06.00 the checkpoint was filled with some 200-250 people waiting on a very long line, many of whom had been there since 4:30 AM. There were always 7-8 people in the building where detainees are held, waiting a for their names to be called and replaced by others. Some went on to their jobs; others were turned back. During the time we were there we counted 11 people who weren’t allowed through the checkpoint and went back.

On Alon Road Route 508 between Gitit Settlement and Hamra CP we saw three Palestinians detained by the IDF. A military camera located on top of a hill caught them picking "Akub" (Gundelia Tournefortii) which is a protected plant. The soldiers told us that this is a "terrorist attack". They were detained for two and a half hours and then were taken by the army, even thought one of the men suffered from an asthma attack.
