Anger grows over ‘unjust’ Israeli travel bans on Palestinians in West Bank, Gaza

TE24 International Desk:

RAMALLAH – Palestinian schoolteacher Zawada Shalaldeh has been the subject of an Israeli travel ban for 37 years.

The 59-year-old from the town of Sa’ir, near Hebron, in the West Bank told Arab News that the restrictions imposed on his movements had also impacted on his wife’s ability to get around.

He said: “Starting around 1985 until now, I have been prohibited from going by the Israeli occupation powers who guarantee it is for the sake of security. Indeed, even my significant other can’t get a passage license to Jerusalem in view of the boycott forced on me.”

Shalaldeh has been captured by the Israeli military specialists a few times and was last let out of care in December 2016. His movement boycott stayed set up when his capture.

He endeavored to venture out to Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah in 1988, 1993, and 2008, yet on each event the Israelis hindered him at Allenby Bridge, the main land line crossing in the West Bank, that connects the domain with Jordan.

“I need to venture out now to perform Umrah in Saudi Arabia, however they don’t permit me. I was captured, and I was rebuffed with detainment. Why would that be extra discipline keeping me from voyaging?

“This is unreasonable and an outlandish limitation on human opportunity. The Israeli occupation has no privilege to keep me from practicing my entitlement to travel openly,” he added.

Shalaldeh is one of many Palestinians that have been hit with movement boycotts, and common freedoms authorities guarantee such Israeli limitations have just heightened as of late.

“I will keep on battling until the movement boycott is lifted, yet I won’t surrender my entitlement to travel,” he added.

Israel has carried out comparative restrictions on whole networks, remembering Hebron for 2014, and the town of Rummana, close to Jenin, recently.

Helmy Al-Araj, head of the Hurriyat social liberties community in Ramallah, who is driving a mission against the limitations, said: “The aggregate travel boycott is for a particular period, yet the singular travel boycott is far more regrettable as nobody realizes its time breaking point or length, and it is viewed as a long-lasting travel boycott.”

The authority noticed that singular travel prohibitions on Palestinians set up by Israel’s inside security office Shin Bet confronted lawful difficulties as they frequently endured endlessly and impacted family members.

Many Palestinians need to travel through Jordan for trade and business reasons or for education, medical treatment, pilgrimage, and family reunions. Palestine has no airport, but Palestinians are prohibited from using Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport, so Allenby Bridge, controlled by the Israeli authorities, is their only corridor to the outside world.

The Hurriyat Center has documented more than 8,500 cases of travel bans since 2014, 650 of them involving women.

“Travelers are surprised by this procedure when they are prevented from traveling to Jordan at the border crossing,” Al-Araj added.

The travel ban affects 3 million Palestinians in the West Bank and 2 million in the Gaza Strip who are not allowed to move between the two enclaves.
