The defense establishment has completed its special preparations for Yom Kippur. The Israel Defense Forces imposed a general closure on the Judea and Samaria area on Sunday and closed the crossings in Gaza, ending at midnight after Yom Kippur, subject to a security assessment.
During the fast, roadblocks will be set up on the main roads in Jerusalem to prevent vehicular traffic from eastern Jerusalem neighborhoods to western neighborhoods. Police and Border Guards will be stationed near the checkpoints and will be deployed in frontline neighborhoods and at friction points to prevent stone throwing and disturbances.
