RAMALLAH, West Bank — Hussein al-Sheikh, the head of the General Authority for Civil Affairs, discussed the establishment of a land port in the West Bank during a meeting with the private sector at the Ramallah and al-Bireh Chamber of Commerce and Industry Oct. 7. The land port would receive goods entering the Palestinian territories from Israeli ports.
“There is an Israeli agreement to establish this port, but on their terms, which has delayed its establishment so far,” Sheikh said.
