The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Thursday evening blocked Palestinians’ access out of and into southern Nablus via the Hawara military checkpoint.
Reporting from the northern occupied West Bank province of Nablus a PIC news correspondent said the IOF closed the Hawara checkpoint to the south and barred Palestinians from reaching their homes and workplaces.
Dozens of Palestinian vehicles and passengers lined up in the street after the IOF sealed off the checkpoint.
At the same time a horde of Israeli settlers was spotted at the checkpoint and attempted to attack the Palestinians.
The Israeli occupation army has tightened military grip around Palestinians’ neck across the West Bank in an attempt to squash anti-occupation activism.
