How do you enforce a curfew? How do you enforce a curfew? They hardly dared to be out during curfew, to be honest.

Of course it's forbidden to drive. Yes, it was also forbidden to go on foot. Nothing. They yell, every time they see someone, everyone starts yelling. Mainly the border police would go around in jeeps, one policeman with his weapon like this, and anyone who moved, he would aim the weapon at him, at anyone walking on the street. They would very quickly run into the house, they weren’t outside too much. At most, they would send a kid to try and get to the grocery store, stuff like that. You see kids running.

How long was there a curfew? How long was there a curfew? After the murder of Shalhevet – a long time.

From the murder until... No, no. After the murder there was a lot of curfew, and after that there was something else that… There were a lot of periods of curfew, but after Shalhevet it was really like two months of curfew, on the level of people walking on the street, begging you to get to the grocery store. Like, please, just let me get to the grocer, just a little bread, just to buy this, I'll just give my kid money to buy this and that.

What did you think of that? What did I think of that? I never ever prevented someone from going during curfew when I was first there. After the murder of Shalhevet, I was in shock from the Jewish settlement, from how disgusting they are, and I just didn't enforce it at all. Usually, my shifts were with someone senior, who the Arabs already knew, so they would detour around us. I was afraid to guard with the senior guys, I hated it.

Why? Because they were awful, imposing terror and fear, and because they would go to sleep on the watches and I didn't have anyone to talk to.

Were you afraid? Listen, you’re standing at a post, and you’re a woman, and there’s no one around you. The other guy is sleeping like a log in some cubicle. Really, there isn't anyone to talk to.
