The IDF has begun to ease the closure around Ramallah and adjacent areas. Bulldozers removed dirt embankments located around the northern city entrance, although soldiers are still keeping strict tabs on incoming and outgoing traffic. Although the army announced that the closure was removed only partially, Arutz-7 correspondent Haggai Huberman reports that there is no difficulty entering and leaving Ramallah. The IDF also eased travel restrictions around Bethlehem, Hebron, Kalkilya, and Tulkarm yesterday.
