The Israeli military announced it will prevent Palestinians with work permits from entering settlements in the occupied West Bank on Sunday and Monday, Middle East Eye reported. Only workers in industrial zones and other designated areas will be allowed entry during the restriction period.
The measure affects Palestinians who hold legal permits to work in the territory, limiting their access to employment opportunities in settlements during the two-day closure.
