Jayyous, West Bank

October 31 - November 1 , 2008

Jayyous is a Palestinian village in the West Bank, near Qaliqilya.
Although it's several kilometers from the Green Line border with Israel,
the Separation Barrier runs through Jayyous farmland.
Some of that land is still accessible to Jayyous farmers when Israeli soldiers
let them pass through a gate that's open only early in the morning and again after 5 pm.
Some of the land has been confiscated by the Jewish settlement of Tsufin.
You can read about my visit to Jayyous on my blog.
