According to Wafa news agency, the checkpoint was set up by Palestinian security forces at the entrance to the occupied West Bank city of Jenin to prevent the spread of the virus.
A total of 468 new coronavirus cases and three deaths from the disease were recorded in the occupied Palestinian territories over the past 24 hours, confirmed the Ministry of Health on Tuesday, leaving the active cases at 8,360 and total deaths at 65.
It added that 40 patients are currently in intensive care units, including three placed on respirators, with no reports of recoveries.
Israeli forces also injured a Palestinian man at the Jenin refugee camp, the report added.
Local sources said soldiers stormed Jenin and its refugee camp early morning to arrest activists. Occupation forces shot at Palestinians in the area, according to the reports, injuring one person in the leg.
Two people were arrested before the soldiers left the city and the checkpoint was destroyed.
Despite the coronavirus outbreak, Israeli authorities continue to abuse the most vulnerable Palestinian communities in the occupied West Bank, as part of decades-long attempts to drive them out of the area, and to similarly mistreat Palestinians in East Jerusalem al-Quds.
