In a measure of collective punishment, following attacks perpetrated by
local Palestinians in early July, the Israeli military imposed strict
travel restrictions on Palestinians in the Hebron District, disrupting
the daily life and routine of nearly one million people. In al-Fawwar [refugee camp] ., home to 10,000 residents, the main entrance was closed and most of
the dirt roads leading to it were blocked off. B’Tselem field
researcher Musa Abu Hashhash filmed residents having no choice but to
walk on foot past the closed gate carrying heavy burdens.
