He said that they received a number of stop-work orders from the Israelis who claimed that the road has been opened before acquiring the needed permits. The road branches from bypass ‘356’ and leads to Um Lasfa. Al Deirat is located to the north of the bypass and people had to go through the bypass and al Deirat to reach Um Lasfa. Now, the locals are forced to take a longer alternative route to get to Um Lasfa.
