‘Israel’ closes PA areas for Jewish holiday

Occupied Palestine (QNN)- The occupation state on Thursday said it will close Palestinian territories under the Palestinian Authority to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Purim.

The spokesperson for the Israeli army Avichay Adraee said the decision was directed by political leadership based on “the assessment of the security situation.”

“A complete closure will be imposed on Judea and Samaria (the occupied West Bank) and the Gaza Strip crossings,” he said in a statement.

According to Adraee, the closure will start at midnight Thursday and last until midnight Sunday.
