The Israeli Occupation army has maintained the closure of the entrances to the village of Al-Mughayyir, located east of Ramallah, for 15 consecutive days as of Saturday.

The sources reported that the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) continued to block access to the village through its two main entrances, preventing residents from entering or leaving. As a result, they were compelled to navigate rough dirt roads in order to reach their workplaces.

The sources further noted that the village has been subjected to occasional attacks by settlers and occupation soldiers. They highlighted an incident on Friday where a Palestinian sustained a head injury from live ammunition during clashes in the village. Additionally, settlers set fire to five vehicles belonging to local farmers in the area.
