It’s been six days of siege and assault in Jenin

It’s been six days of siege and assault in Jenin. This time it’s not Israel, because Israel has its hands full. So this week we witnessed a ruthlessness from the Palestinian Authority.

It’s a war zone.

The PA security forces (including the new S.A.T unit) have been waging a large scale military operation against Jenin refugee camp.

While PA spokesperson Anwar Rajab told reporters that this was an operation against lawlessness and chaos, it was clear that PA forces were given greenlight to harass and violently assault Palestinian civilians.

Video at the end is of PA forces firing teargas and stun grenades at women, ladies and children that had a brief moment to leave the camp and head towards the hospital to check on the wounded (noting the PA enforced a siege on the hospitals and I tried multiple times to get in but they did not allow me “because of orders.”)

It was frightening scene. Complete darkness. No electricity and screams as teargas and stun grenades were thrown on the ground and live ammunition from snipers rang in the sky.
