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.

Two teams working west of the section of the road between the settlements of Ro’i and Beqa’ot has two D9 bulldozers and soldiers protecting them. The process: a bulldozer digs and deepens the trench west of the earth mound, a second bulldozer puts the excavated earth on the earth mound, to make it higher.

The fence of Maskiyot settlement, with its light poles, is now below a huge sign reading “Maskiyot". The suspicion that they’re preparing for a new stage of construction seems to be coming true.

Al Auja the spring which until ten years ago flowed abundantly and provided water via channels to the town of Al Auja, the surrounding localities and the Dead Sea (1/3 to each destination). Rusted dams, blocked channels, and the famous water slide are all ruined, because Israel erected three giant pumping stations nearby and another one higher up the hill, and diverted all the water to the settlements.

Well, to have called this a 'house' would have been a bit of an overstatement. At 9 AM a military bulldozer arrived at the middle of an encampment consisting of five structures and demolished the sheep she. , Now the sheep lie exposed in the scorching sun. The woman complains that her family hardly has any food as it is, and now this… The son, who speaks Hebrew, tells us that less than a month ago, on September 20th, agents of the Civil Administration of the Occupation arrived and handed them a demolition order for the large tent that stood where now the sheep shed had been. The family dismantled the tent in view of the officials and left only the small sheep shed intact. But the officer told them, as the son says: “We don’t care – we only want you to go away!” (MW report October 6.2011)

Palestinians tell us that tanks cross this point often and one of them has broken/twisted the metal gate. It now remains open to enable tank passage. Until two weeks ago “security needs” prevented Palestinians of the Jordan Valley from traveling to the center of their daily lives in the West Bank hills, except for specific days and hours.....So what has changed? How is it suddenly possible for them to cross without inspection? .......(MW report October 6.2011)
