PA Security Forces Move Against Terrorists in West Bank
(Ynet News) Einav Halabi - After nearly a decade of inaction, Palestinian security forces intensified operations to regain control of the Jenin refugee camp on Monday. Palestinian reports say heavy exchanges of gunfire have left seven terrorists injured. PA security officials announced the capture of the main operations center of the Jenin Brigade, affiliated with Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and the arrest of 12 terror operatives. Members of the Jenin Brigade have been given an ultimatum to surrender their weapons or face arrest and prosecution for weapons trafficking and collaboration with foreign entities like Iran and Hamas. Akram Rajoub, who served as governor of Jenin until last year, said, "This is a group of young men - only God knows who armed them and gave them money. They want to dictate to the security forces how to confront Israel and in what way," he said. The operation in Jenin was launched after terrorists seized two PA security vehicles and paraded them through the streets of the camp last week draped in Hamas and PIJ flags.
