Israel sets closure on West Bank ahead of Passover

None

Israel has imposed a closure on the Palestinian territories as a security measure for the weeklong Passover holiday.

 

The military said Palestinians will be barred from entering Israel from the West Bank or Gaza until the end of the weeklong holiday that starts Monday evening. It said exceptions will be made for humanitarian cases.

  

Israel routinely imposes closures during Jewish holidays.
