Jericho Remains Under Israeli Siege for Ninth Day

The Israeli occupation forces has continued to close all the main and secondary entrances to the city of Jericho with their military checkpoints for the ninth day in a row.

The occupation forces set up military checkpoints at the two northern entrances of Jericho, the “Training Authority” and “Al-Maarajat”, the southern entrance to the city near Aqabat Jaber camp, and the eastern entrance (the yellow gate).

Jericho and the adjacent Aqabat Jabr refugee camp were the scenes of repeated Israeli military assaults since early February, including a bloody army attack on the refugee camp on February 6 that left five Palestinians killed. (QNA)
