Israel trabalha para eliminar a presença palestina na Cisjordânia, alerta ONG.

There’s simply no way to give an accurate answer. What used to be a short ride from one place to another could now take hours, or it might not happen at all.

Sometimes pins are sent to warn people driving near towns where Israeli forces are conducting raids.

E se não houver tempo para conferir os grupos, há sempre o Basma FM. A estação de rádio palestina, sediada em Rawabi, perto de Ramallah, transmite três atualizações de trânsito por hora.

The channel started broadcasting on October 2, 2023 – just days before the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7 and the start of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, and what has become a pogrom against Palestinians in the West Bank.

The team had originally planned traffic updates as part of their programming. “We thought we could tell parents picking up their children from school to know where there was traffic, but after the war on Gaza started, we had to shift focus,” Barqawi said.

O departamento dela tem sete funcionários que verificam informações com suas fontes e fornecem atualizações sobre bloqueios.

A questão para os palestinos que dirigem pela Cisjordânia não é simplesmente chegar atrasado às consultas ou ficar retidos por horas – é que há um perigo inerente em viajar pelo território ocupado.

Palestinians in the West Bank drive white-plated vehicles, making them easily identifiable compared to the yellow-plated cars driven by Israeli settlers.

Israeli soldiers have killed Palestinians near checkpoints after claiming they were conducting ramming attacks, and Israeli settlers often attack Palestinian cars or block them from using certain highways.

Esses ataques estão aumentando à medida que assentamentos ilegais israelenses crescem a um ritmo recorde.

It is hard to miss the large infrastructure projects Israel is implementing, expanding highways to connect Israeli settlements to one another and to Israel. This ends up isolating Palestinian communities, often forcing Palestinians to use poorly paved roads or dangerous mountainous routes to avoid Israeli settlers and roadblocks.

A mulher contou como soldados israelenses agrediram seu noivo perto de um posto de controle em Hebron, no sul da Cisjordânia ocupada, porque eles acreditavam erroneamente que ele havia passado sem parar.

A year later, she said, a soldier pointed his rifle at her.

Many Palestinians report being assaulted, humiliated and sometimes arrested at these checkpoints and roadblocks.

Israel impôs há muito tempo restrições de movimento aos palestinos, controlando o sistema rodoviário e o acesso dos palestinos ao mundo mais amplo. Mas, desde que a guerra em Gaza começou, essas restrições intensificaram-se.

As of December 2025, the United Nations documented 925 barriers across the occupied West Bank including East Jerusalem, a 43 percent increase over the 20-year annual average of 647, the UN’s humanitarian affairs agency, OCHA, reported.

Almost all of of the villages and cities in the West Bank have iron gates at their entrances, and Israeli forces close them arbitrarily. Some of the gates are only open during certain hours.

Um novo relatório do grupo de direitos humanos israelense B’Tselem afirmou que as restrições são usadas para fragmentar deliberadamente a vida palestina, com bloqueios de estradas e postos de controle militares cortando as pessoas de seus trabalhos, escolas, hospitais e uns aos outros.

The report, titled The Elimination Project, says there’s a broad rapid and systematic Israeli assault in the West Bank that aims to dismantle the foundations of Palestinian existence, and road closures are just one of them.

É por isso que, enquanto Heba Erkat preparava suas anotações antes de entrar no estúdio para o boletim da Basma FM na quarta‑feira à tarde, ela sabia que as informações que seriam lidas poderiam mudar rapidamente.

Her colleague read the news, and then Erkat started listing updates at 61 checkpoints across the West Bank.

It was a relatively good day: only 12 of the checkpoints were either closed or had long queues.

Mas, como Erkat observou ao final do segmento, “a situação muda a cada minuto”.
