WAFA reported on Tuesday morning, 27 October, that Israeli forces closed the Rawabi gate and the Nabi Saleh and Aboud gates, and set up checkpoints near the Education and Training Directorate on the al-Bireh–al-Jalazone road and on the Yabrud–Silwad road. Ein Sinya and Atara remained closed from the previous day; those continuing closures are context, not new measures counted again.
