RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Nablus- 21 October 2022. Protesters wave Palestinian flags and burn tires during a demonstration near the Hawara checkpoint against Israel's blockade in Nablus, in the West Bank. STORYLINE: Over the past nine days, Israel has shut down the Nablus district, one of the largest in the West Bank, as the army cracks down on a resurgence of armed resistance in the area. The siege of Nablus has resulted in a virtual halt on life here, bringing with it substantial economic repercussions, not only for Nablus residents but Palestinians across the West Bank. For nine days, the Israeli military has closed all eight surrounding military checkpoints to enter and exit Nablus. The army has also erected dozens more flying checkpoints, and has sealed off a network of side roads across the governorate. The Nablus district is home to over 425,000 people spread across four refugee camps, 55 villages, and one city. Virtually all of the district's residents have been affected by the closures, as they remain stalled at checkpoints, hoping to make it to work, university, or to visit friends and family who are trapped in the city, unable to make it out. After an Israeli soldier was killed on 11 October while at a military post outside the Nablus-area town of Deir Sharaf, the Israeli army embarked on a widespread manhunt for the shooter, who belonged to the new “Lion’s Den” armed group.
