Tensions Rise as Israel Withdraws from Jenin, Palestinians Brace for Escalation
Israel's two-day operation in the Jenin refugee camp resulted in the deaths of 12 Palestinians and one Israeli soldier, causing thousands to flee their homes and sparking anger towards the Palestinian Authority (PA) for allowing Israeli forces to operate freely. Palestinians expressed frustration with the PA's lack of resistance and called for its representatives to leave. The camp, known for militant activity, was left in ruins, with tensions running high. Israel claimed the operation was necessary due to the PA's abandonment of the camp to militants involved in attacks against Israel. The PA's control and security coordination with Israel are now being questioned by residents.
