Daily life across the West Bank has come to a standstill for the third day as Israeli forces enforce a sweeping closure, blocking movement between cities and villages. The lockdown follows heightened regional tensions, including recent escalations between Israel and Iran. 🌍
Major roads connecting northern, central, and southern areas are sealed with iron gates and checkpoints, according to Palestinian security sources. Urban centers and refugee camps now resemble isolated islands, with locals reporting military patrols using tear gas and sound grenades to disperse crowds. 🚨
"Everything is frozen—schools, businesses, even ambulances," a Palestinian official told Xinhua anonymously. The Palestinian Red Crescent warned that emergency teams face "serious obstacles" reaching patients, raising fears of a healthcare crisis. 🚑
Israeli media describes the closure as a precautionary measure, with additional troops deployed across the region. No timeline has been given for lifting restrictions, leaving residents in limbo. 📰
