New app tackles traffic at checkpoints in the West Bank

Hundreds of military checkpoints scattered around the occupied
Palestinian territory are prone to arbitrarily closure without prior
warning, restricting the freedom of movement for Palestinians whose
daily lives are already defined by a sense of chaos, temporariness and
unpredictability.

translates to mean ‘traffic jam’ in Arabic – has been designed to tackle
this very problem.
