Israel started with digging the Tunnel on the entrance of Al Khader Village, West of Bethlehem !!!

June 1, 2006
in Military Orders
Israel started with digging the Tunnel on the entrance of Al Khader Village, West of Bethlehem !!!

After issuing the military order (# 210/05/T) in 21, November 2005, which states the confiscation of 85 dunums of lands from Al Khader, Battir and Beit Jala cities to construct the crossing point (terminal) and the tunnel at the entrance of Al Khader village.  The residents of Bethlehem western rural village councils (Nahalin, Hussan, Battir, Wadi Fukin and Jab'a) along with Al Khader and Beit Jala Municipalities objected the military order and filed petitions to the Israeli Supreme court to stop the construction of the terminal.

 

, on March 12, 2006, the Israeli Supreme court, and as a result of the filed petition, has  issued a restraining order to halt the construction of the crossing point (terminal) at the entrance of Al Khader Village, west of Bethlehem. (For more clarification, see map 1).

 

After nearly two months, the Israeli court responded to an appeal submitted by the Israeli Army to construct the tunnel under the
pretext of 'security needs' and gave the green line to start digging to build the tunnel under the Israeli controlled bypass road # 60 near Al Khader Village. See Pictures below

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only fact which the citizens of these villages realize is that the terminal will separate them from Bethlehem Governorate, and a controlled tunnel will be the only way for them to commune with the rest of the Governorate.

 

 

 

Palestinian residents of the five villages (Nahalin, Hussan, Battir, Wadi Fukin and Jab'a), after they cross the tunnel, must stop for security check inside the terminal, a procedure which will cost the residents more annoyance and wasting of time.

 

 

 

It is worth mentioning that the movement between the five villages and Bethlehem Governorate will based on identification card, in other words, going to the five villages from Bethlehem, will be after verifying the location of residency by the ID card and anyone who wants to access one of these villages must be from the residents of these villages otherwise s/he will not enter.

 

 

 

The spokesman of the Israeli Civil Administration clarified that the tunnel comes within the framework of the Israeli government policy aiming to facilitate the lives of the Palestinian civilians!!!

 

 

 

On the other hand, the Palestinian residents of these villages see in the Israeli plan more narrowing and more suffering and tightening the blockade which imposed on them from many years ago.

 

 

 

The nightmare of the Israeli checkpoints and terminals pursues the Palestinian residents not only on their way between their cities and villages, but also it reaches to the entrances of their cities and villages and some times to their home doors and windows.
