Israeli occupation forces closed all entrances to the city of Ramallah on Tuesday, while setting up checkpoints on alternative roads used by Palestinians.

Palestinian sources reported that the occupation closed the Ein Siniya and Atara checkpoints and the Rawabi gate, north of Ramallah, and the Nabi Saleh and Aboud gates, northwest. It also set up a checkpoint near the Education Suburb on the Al-Bireh-Jalazone road, and a checkpoint on the road connecting the village of Yabrud and the town of Silwad, northeast of Ramallah.
