Original Note:
Israel closes checkpoints on state holidays, not Jewish holidays, though there is occasional overlap. Chanukah is not a state holiday so no checkpoints would be closed. Notably, Egypt and Jordan shut down their borders on Muslim holidays. https://www.accesscoordination.org/Doc/International%20Crossings%20Holidays%20Oct%202024.pdf https://english.ahram.org.eg/News/309830.aspx https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-to-close-west-bank-gaza-during-upcoming-holidays/
