Police block exit from capital’s Jabel Mukaber neighborhood

Police place a concrete barrier at the entrance to the Arab neighborhood of Jabel Mukaber in East Jerusalem.

The barrier is placed at an intersection that connects Jabel Mukaber to the Jewish neighborhood of Armon Hanatziv, where residents have thus far been able to pass relatively freely.

According to police, “the change is made from time to time for operational and security reasons,” Ynet reports.
