An Israeli soldier stands guard as he checks Palestinians' vehicles on their way out of the West Bank village of Ein Sinya, northern Ramallah on February 1, 2016. Israel blocked non-residents from Ramallah after a checkpoint shooting wounded three soldiers, keeping commuters out of the West Bank city where the Palestinian Authority is based. The unusual move also applied to foreigners, although United Nations officials, international NGOs and diplomatic staff were being allowed in, diplomatic and UN sources said. Palestinians seeking to leave Ramallah were also undergoing security checks, leading to frustration in lengthy queues. Photo by Shadi Hatem
