Report: Palestinian shops in Hebron forced to close over Israeli visits

Palestinian news agency Ma’an says Palestinian shop owners in Hebron are forced to close as thousands of right-wing Israelis visit the city for Passover.

Hebron activist Issa Amro tells Ma’an that the IDF “instructed” shops in both the H1 (controlled by the PA) and H2 (controlled by Israel) areas of the city to stay shut.

“They want to make it look like Palestinians don’t live here,” Amro says.
