An Israeli checkpoint (Hebrew: מחסום, mahsom, Arabic: حاجز, hajez), is a barrier erected by the Israeli Security Forces, primarily today part of the system of West Bank closures in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The checkpoints are, according to Israel, intended to enhance security of Israel and Israeli settlements.[1] Israeli checkpoints may be staffed by the Israeli Military Police, the Israel Border Police, or other soldiers.[2]
