Army lifts Jenin blockade; two IDF officers wounded in Nablus blast

The Israel Defense Forces decided Thursday to lift the blockade of the West Bank city of Jenin for the first time since the hudna cease-fire collapsed in August 2003. The decision was made due to a decline in the number of terror warning in the area.

The IDF will remove some of the roadblocks surrounding the city and will enable Palestinian cars to travel through other IDF roadblocks.

Colonel Oren Avman, the commander of the main brigade in the area, met Thursday afternoon with his Palestinian counterpart to inform him of the decision.
