Israeli occupation forces sealed multiple military checkpoints surrounding Ramallah on Wednesday evening, blocking vehicles from leaving the city, Shehab Wire reported. The action triggered severe traffic congestion as large numbers of vehicles accumulated at the sealed crossings.
Residents faced significant delays as the checkpoints remained closed to outbound traffic throughout the evening. The blockade disrupted movement in and out of the Palestinian city.
