Israeli military sealed off all entrances to the city of Jericho in the West Bank on Friday, reported the Wafa news agency.
The Israeli military closed the gates at the entrances to the city in both directions, forcing Palestinians to wait in lengthy queues.
A group of Israeli settlers blockaded the northern entrance to Jericho by parking their vehicles along the width of the road, forcing Palestinian vehicles to turn back.
The Israeli military has started isolating cities and governorates from one another using gates, barriers, and concrete blocks since the first batch of Palestinian prisoners was released in January as part of a ceasefire deal that collapsed in March.
