Observers on behalf of the US government are currently visiting to monitor treatment of Palestinian-Americans at border crossings, according to Reuters, after travel restrictions on them were eased as part of Israeli efforts to join the US Visa Waiver Program.

Citing four unidentified officials, the report says the observers have toured immigration offices and Ben Gurion Airport , and were scheduled to visit a West Bank crossing today as part of their discreet trip.
