Pipes cut and roads closed as Israel blocks Palestinian shepherds' access to water in the West Bank

Northern West Bank, Palestine ·

A yellow gate on the Alon road in the northern West Bank, near the Bqaot settlement, is now closed and blocked with concrete blocks and earth. Jordan Valley activists have called it the "water gate" for years, as it was once used to transport water.

Much of the West Bank, including the Jordan Valley, has been under full Israeli civil and security control (Area C) since the 1995 Oslo interim agreements, leaving Palestinian communities there with limited access to land and water.
