Atarot Airport (IATA: JRS, ICAO: LLJR), (also Kalandia Airport) is a small airport located between Jerusalem and Ramallah. It was the first airport in Palestine. It has been closed since the First and Second Intifadas in the wake of Palestinian political violence. Until 1930, the airfield in Kalandia was the only airport in Palestine. It was used by the British military authorities and prominent guests bound for Jerusalem. The aiprort was located near Atarot, a Jewish village captured and destroyed by the Jordanian Arab Legion during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, and to the Arab village of Kalandia (after 1948, also a refugee camp of the same name). Both had at different times, and under different political circumstances, given their name to the airport. The airport was controlled by Jordanian troops from 1948 until the Six-Day War in June 1967, after which it was unilaterally incorporated into the Greater Jerusalem municipal area.
