Israeli forces prevented around 30 Palestinians from accessing their homes in Beit Iksa, northwest of Jerusalem, for the second consecutive week, the Wafa news agency reported. Residents of the West Bank village have been barred from entering their residences during the ongoing blockade.
The restrictions mark a continuation of access denial that began the previous week. No explanation has been provided by Israeli forces regarding the reasons for the blockade or when residents might regain access to their homes in the affected area.
