A security man was wounded, this evening, Monday, by the Israeli occupation army, south of Nablus.

According to local sources, a policeman was moderately wounded after being shot by the occupation soldiers near the entrance to Qusra village, south of Nablus, while performing his duties.

President Mahmoud Abbas said in a speech at the beginning of the leadership meeting that he had issued directives to the Palestinian government to provide all the necessary needs for the city of Jenin and its camp in the face of the Israeli aggression.

President Abbas called the general secretaries of all Palestinian factions for an emergency meeting to confront the dangers surrounding the Palestinian cause.

"In the face of this barbaric aggression and what is happening in Jenin, we renew our call to the international community to provide protection for our people, impose sanctions on the occupation, and condemn this terrorist aggression against the city of Jenin," he added.

President Abbas indicated that there will be decisions regarding the situation in Jenin, and they will be announced at the end of the session.

On Monday evening, the Israeli army decided to cancel a concert that was to be held in the town of Sderot, adjacent to the Gaza Strip border.

According to an Israeli military spokesman, the decision was taken after a security assessment session conducted by the commander of the southern region, Eliezer Twaledino.

He pointed out that this was taken because of the events in Jenin, and fears of rockets being fired from the Strip.

On Monday evening, the Israeli army claimed that it had found tunnels, weapons and explosive devices during its ongoing operation in Jenin.

According to a statement by the Israeli army spokesman, it found factories for the manufacture of explosive devices, containing hundreds of devices, and various weapons, communication devices, and instructions for manufacturing explosive devices and devices were also found.

He indicated that he had found tunnel openings in some of the targets that had been reached, and it is being investigated to where these tunnels reach.

And that his forces managed to arrest 20 wanted men, while two soldiers were slightly wounded.

On Monday evening, the Israeli police arrested a 14-year-old boy from the West Bank, inside the city of Bnei Brak on the Green Line, under the pretext that he had stabbed an Israeli with minor injuries.

According to the Hebrew website, Ynet, the injured person was taken for treatment, and his condition was described as very slight.

He indicated that the detainee was transferred for interrogation.

Beirut – The deputy head of the Hamas' political bureau, Saleh al-Arouri, said on Monday if the Israeli occupation wants to "destroy the will of the resistance in Jenin, it will come out disappointed."

In Al-Arouri stressed that the occupation will be ambushed, and its soldiers will be killed, calling on the resistance fighters in the camp to capture the occupation soldiers and turn this attack on them.

"We will strike the occupation in every place and time we choose... A few days ago, one Qassam rocket was launched from Jenin," he added.

Al-Arouri called on all our people and our resistance and whoever has the ability and tool to support our people and our people in Jenin to take the initiative in action and action, adding: "We are all confident in the will and determination of our people and our resistance in the Jenin camp, and they are one meat and one hand against the occupation."

He pointed out that the resistance in the West Bank is developing in impossible circumstances, under an applied blockade and enemies from every side, indicating that the will of the resistance fighters and our people showed great strength with the development of the resistance.

And he continued, "We are on a date with a new generation of resistance fighters who will fight the battle, win, and thwart the occupation government's plans to impose new facts in Jerusalem and the West Bank."

Al-Arouri pointed out that the resistance fighters on the ground are one body, even if they have different factional affiliations, and the youth of the resistance who responded to the crimes of the occupation in the West Bank belong first and foremost to this people, this nation, and Al-Aqsa Mosque.

And he added, "The West Bank is the soft belly of the occupation, and there are hundreds of thousands of settlers, who are present illegally (according to international law), and our people and our resistance will exploit the will of our youth to defend our people and defeat the occupation."

Israeli occupation forces have killed at least eight Palestinians in an ongoing large-scale military operation in Jenin.

The martyrs are Samih Abu Al-Wafa, Hussam Abu Dhiba, Aws Al-Hanoun, Nour Al-Din Marshoud, Muhammad Al-Shami, Ahmed Amer, Majdi Arrawi, and Ali Al-Ghoul.

Fifty others were injured, with ten in a serious condition. 

Israeli occupation forces launched several air raids, before making a ground incursion into the city and Jenin Refugee Camp. Palestinian resistance fighters targeted army vehicles with explosive devices and shot down drones.

The Israeli army said that one of its soldiers was lightly wounded.

During their operation, the Israeli army also deliberately damaged the camp's infrastructure and destroyed several institutions. They also targeted many homes and mosques with air strikes and guided missiles.

The occupation army claimed that it had found weapons, explosive devices, and a primitive missile launcher. It also claimed it had arrested 20 Palestinians.

During their operation, the Israeli army also deliberately damaged the camp's infrastructure and destroyed institutions, headquarters, and others. They also targeted many homes and mosques with air strikes and guided missiles.

Ziyad al-Nakhalah, the Secretary General of the Islamic Jihad movement, condemned Israel's "massacre" against Palestinians Jenin on Monday. 

Al-Nakhala added that "The resistance and the Al-Quds Brigades will fulfil their duty and stop this massacre."

Massive Palestinian crowds, today, Monday, mourned the body of the martyr Muhammad Imad Hassanein (21 years old), in the city of Al-Bireh.

The funeral procession departed from the front of the Palestine Medical Complex, to his family's house located in the Al-Masayef neighborhood in Ramallah, to bid farewell to him, before praying for him in Al-Ain Mosque, and then his burial in the city cemetery.

The participants carried the body of the martyr Hassanein, who was wrapped in the Palestinian flag, and roamed the streets of the city, chanting angry slogans condemning the crimes committed by the occupation forces against our people.

The young Hassanein, who is from the Gaza Strip and lives in the city of Ramallah, was hit by a bullet in the head, fired at him by the occupation soldiers while he was with a number of other young men.

And the young Hassanein, a former prisoner, was arrested by the Israeli occupation forces on May 15, 2019, after he was wounded in the right foot, which led to lacerations in his blood vessels.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will chair an emergency meeting of the leadership on Monday evening over Israel's aggression against the West Bank city of Jenin on Monday.

Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh said today, Monday, "President Mahmoud Abbas, the leadership and the government are following up with brotherly and friendly countries in order to stop the Israeli aggression on Jenin, during which 7 martyrs and dozens of wounded were killed.

Shtayyeh added at the beginning of the government session: "What is happening is a new attempt to remove the camp from existence and displace its people. The heroic Jenin and its stubborn and steadfast camp are resistant to the occupation and its invasions, just like the rest of our cities, villages and camps."

And he continued: "Our heroic people will confront this aggression, which is taking place under the eyes of the international community, as innocent people are being bombed by planes. Our people will not kneel and will not surrender, and we will remain in confrontation until this criminal occupation is over."

Shtayyeh stressed that the crimes in Jenin, Nablus and Gaza will not bring security to Israel as long as it attacks our people and works against the wheel of history.

He said, "This Israeli government, which wants to resolve the conflict with us through aggression, realizes that victory is the ally of the oppressed peoples who fight for their freedom and independence. This aggression is a complementary episode to the settlers' terrorism and attacks."

Shtayyeh called on the world to immediately stop the aggression against our people in Jenin, and called for confronting it and confronting the herds of settlers.

He called for imposing all possible sanctions against the aggressor Israel, which sponsors terrorism and settlers, and called for confronting pastoral settlement, which aims to confiscate more land and establish more settlements.

Today, the Council of Ministers will discuss the situation in Jenin, the rest of the Palestinian territories, and the aggression against our people there.

The Palestinian Prisoners Club said on Monday that Israeli occupation forces have detained 291 people from Jenin in 2023, around double the number from last year.  

The highest figures came in January and February, the club said, when 62 people were arrested in each month.

The spike comes amid an "escalation of resistance operations and confronting the occupation," the club added.

This includes a significant increase in Palestinians detained without trial, and also includes arrests of recently-released prisoners.

Around 600 people from Jenin are currently in Israeli prisons, including including two female prisoners: Ataf Jaradat and Yasmine Shaaban. Seventy-six are serving life sentences.

The club said that longest-serving prisoner from the Jenin Governorate is Saed Al-Saadi, who has been detained since 1989.

The media and social media reported that the Palestinian Authority is studying the possibility of declaring bankruptcy. Although I could not track down the source of this news, which was denied by high-ranking Palestinian sources, I do not rule out that behind it are Israeli sources working within the framework of a systematic plan to morally assassinate the Authority and create a stereotype of it as helpless and unable to continue.

There is no doubt that there has been an intractable financial crisis for the Authority for several years as a result of Israel stealing the clearing funds that it collects on behalf of the Authority on Palestinian imports through Israeli ports, which it is supposed to transfer to the Authority on the one hand, and as a result of the decline in international financial support provided to the Authority, especially Arab support, as some countries stopped The Arab League has completely failed to fulfill its financial obligations to support the authority, in addition to rumors of financial mismanagement and the lack of a financial policy based on a non-negotiable scale of national priorities.

The situation when power was established and the situation today

In any case, it is strange that the financial situation of the Authority continues according to the current data and the continuation of the separation between the financial situation and the political situation, and between the conditions that prevailed at the time of the establishment of the Authority and what these conditions have become after three decades of the establishment of the Authority.

The Authority was established in 1995 as a transitional body whose term expires with the end of the final status negotiations and the end of the process of transferring West Bank areas from the temporary classification B and C to become most of the Authority's areas "A", with the exception of settlements and military sites.

In the atmosphere of astonishment that accompanied the start of the political process and the revival of hopes that the region is on the way to resolving the most complex regional and even international problems, and I mean the Palestinian cause, the international community, especially Europe, America and the Arab countries, took the initiative to provide financial, technical and logistical support to the Authority to enable it to build its institutions as a state on the road.

Despite the failure of the political process and the cessation of the transfer of land to the authority, the authority continued to practice its work as a rule and proved the correctness of the saying that "nothing is permanent more than the temporary."

Today, the picture of the existing reality on the ground differs from what it was when the Authority was established, as the intensive settlement activities left no place on the ground for the establishment of a Palestinian state, and the number of settlers and settlements has multiplied dozens of times, and the talk of establishing a Palestinian state alongside Israel on the armistice lines of 1949 has become the norm. On it in the name of the 1967 borders is impossible if this situation continues as it is.

Many believe that, in light of this fact, there is no longer any justification for the continued adherence to the survival of the Palestinian Authority, because its continued existence constitutes misleading to world public opinion, as it suggests to it that the Palestinian issue has been resolved and that what is left of it is more like a border dispute, and this is a common and natural matter in international relations. .

Those who hold this opinion believe that the authority’s powers have been eroded, and it is left with nothing but to bear the burdens of the daily life services of the population on behalf of the occupation, and that the material support provided to the authority from donor countries and the taxes that the authority collects from citizens constitute, in fact, material support for the occupation and bear burdens on his behalf. Therefore, it must announce its cessation of work and place these burdens on the occupation.

This point of view may seem logical at first sight, but we have to ask ourselves: What is the alternative to dissolving the PA?
An Israeli answer exists, and the plan to liquidate the Authority is put into actual implementation towards liquidating the Authority and uprooting the idea of ​​establishing a Palestinian state from its roots, as Netanyahu said a few days ago, continuing with the plan to build and expand settlements, and continuing to put pressure on the Palestinians to force them to leave. It can be said that everyone who calls for the dissolution of the PA without having an alternative plan that fulfills the aspirations and aspirations of the Palestinian people for liberation from the yoke of occupation is identifying with the Israeli plan and offering the service to facilitate its implementation, intentionally or unintentionally.

The crime of converting a national case into a financial one
At the same time, it is a crime against our people that its national cause, for which thousands of martyrs, wounded, and prisoners sacrificed itself, has turned into a material cause without a horizon and a political and militant action plan put into practice, and that the matter is limited to searching internally for a solution to the financial crisis, at the expense of our people, whether through By exhausting him with taxes and boasting about the high rate of internal collection, or neglecting his natural resources, which are his right and may not be shared with him by any other party.

As we discuss the humiliation and weakness of the organization and the authority, we must ask ourselves what we have contributed to achieving this.

The Liberation Organization was established as a national title for the Palestinian people, and the recognition of 138 countries in the world out of 193 member states of the United Nations, or about 71% of the international community, led to achieving international recognition of this national title, which constitutes recognition of the national national identity of the Palestinian people.

Despite this remarkable moral achievement of the Palestinian people, a process of marginalization of the organization and emptying it of its content has begun, and its status has reversed from being the umbrella under which the Palestinian Authority stands until the leadership of the authority becomes de facto the one that controls the organization. The fact that the Fatah movement dominates the authority and the organization together helped empty the organization and centralize all powers in the hands of one person, who is the head of the organization, who is at the same time the head of Fatah, the head of the PA, and the head of everything. Both the organization and the authority followed two parallel paths of weakening and emptying of content until they reached what the situation has become today.

Today we are at a historic crossroads, and we must decide in which direction to go. Either we will continue to cling to the authority that has become powerless, and we will cling to the ghost of the organization that we ourselves have weakened, dwarfed its role and turned it into a framework for occasions only, and we will continue to run after the mirage of a political solution and the alleged political horizon, and we will continue to provide free service to the occupation, whether on the security level or in terms of exempting it from His international duties are to bear the financial burdens required to achieve the well-being of the occupied people, or we confront the fierce attack by the occupation against our existence and our cause and adopt the slogan of rejecting the occupation in word and deed until it is defeated and recedes from our occupied land and we enjoy freedom, independence and sovereignty over our national soil.

We need a comprehensive national dialogue, from all platforms and away from security repression and silencing mouths, in order to open up to each other and reach a state of confidence that establishes unified national action, more like a single broad front that includes all the colors of our people's spectrum.

Israeli authorities considered that the statement issued by the leaders of the most prominent arms of the security establishment (the army, the Shin Bet security service, and the police), which described settler attacks on the Palestinian population and their property in the 1967 lands as “national terrorism in every sense of the word,” is important simply because it calls things by their proper names. . And some others, from the spectrum opposing the rule of the extreme right, added, rightly, that this step came much late, and perhaps reflects a delayed awakening, because the Israeli army itself, and before it served as a tool in the hands of the settlers during Benjamin Netanyahu's repeated terms at the head of the Israeli government, He allowed violence and daily attacks on farmers and shepherds, cutting trees and attacking children, and sometimes his soldiers participated in the attacks, so he is not innocent.

We should add that the name, in and of itself, is not widely disputed within the corridors of the security establishment, at least since the escalation of these attacks a few years ago, and the escalation of the emergence of “price tag” gangs among the settlers, as that institution and a number of Israeli politicians had previously To describe the practices of these gangs as national terrorism or extreme national crimes of a very dangerous kind.

However, the issue lies in the lack of a political decision to pursue these gangs. About ten years ago, the former head of the Shin Bet, Karmi Gilon, announced that this agency could, within a short period of time, put an end to “price tag” crimes if the Israeli political establishment took a decision to combat these operations in the same way as any other operations of a terrorist nature.

He explained that combating these operations did not succeed due to the lack of a real intention to combat them, stressing that it is inconceivable that the Shin Bet would not be able to confront these operations, but it seems that the relevant security authorities do not have enough desire to engage in such a confrontation. In the same period, Israeli security analyst Yossi Melman said that most of the heads of the Shin Bet apparatus seem to have forgotten that the phrase that should direct them is "there is no we can", and they began to adopt the phrase "we do not want"!

Between the past and current periods, and according to Israeli reports, the years 2016 and 2017 witnessed a continuous decrease in the number of violent incidents in the West Bank, which the security establishment considered extremist national crimes, including beatings at Palestinians, throwing stones, vandalizing homes and cars, and cutting down trees. This decrease was mainly attributed to the repercussions of the murder of three members of the Dawabsha family in the village of Duma, which was committed by an Israeli settler who burned the family's house with Molotov cocktails. After the crime, the Shin Bet arrested many right-wing activists in the West Bank who were involved in acts of violence and incitement to violence against the Palestinians. The steps taken during that period, including administrative detention, deportation orders from the West Bank, and permission to conduct an investigation using severe means of pressure in certain cases, strengthened deterrence towards settlers. Against this background, the crimes of Jewish terrorism decreased. However, these steps were soon abandoned and new terrorist groups emerged.

In 2018, there was a significant increase in the number of Jewish terrorist crimes in the West Bank. According to data collected by the Israeli media until mid-December 2018, 482 terrorist incidents were recorded in that year - a threefold increase compared to 2017, when 140 incidents were recorded.

What is now clear, as it has always been, is that these terrorists are not weeds, or a passing phenomenon, but can be considered as battalions of a colonial regime that produces a system of racist laws that deal with people based on their origins and affiliation. As has been said repeatedly, the ongoing Israeli legislation not only serves the system of dispossession, expulsion and oppression of the indigenous population, but also aims to ensure the continued generation of a group of loyal and obedient settlers ready to be the spearhead of this system.

After President Mahmoud Abbas reached the age of eighty-eight, there was more talk of his succession, or the stage after him, even though he behaved as if he would live forever.

The strange thing is that the least of those who raise this issue in “public” solutions are the Palestinians, and the most who raise it are the Israelis, and this case has produced a valuable Israeli advantage. It is monopolizing the issue and unilaterally influencing public opinion, even at the level of offering names and opportunities. How should the Hebrew state act, if Abbas is suddenly absent from the scene, leaving behind a Palestinian situation dominated by chaos and internal conflict?

And when the media treatment is absent due to caution and unwillingness to hit the glass, popular discussions flourish. Not out of curiosity, but out of anxiety about ambiguity and fear of the void that chaos will fill. In all discussions, the specter of armed fighting between the conflicting parties is not ruled out, whether within the successor movement Fatah or on a broader level. Here, Hamas enters as a lurking party that does not talk much about the matter, but is working more on it.

In the Palestinian case, every big and small thing in it is directly and indirectly related to Israel, which, with Abbas and in his absence, has influence and influence in the paths and outcomes. Perhaps in that lies the urgent interest in what will happen after Abbas, and how does Israel interfere in the matter? The names circulated in the issue of succession come from Israeli nominations. It seems naive to consider them innocent or objective. Israel, which seeks long-term control over the Palestinian situation as a whole, considers who will come after Abbas as part of its vision of control policy and arrangements. That is why it presents multiple scenarios in which all related possibilities are presented. With the people proposed by it, and the only thing that it and other players in the arena avoid is the elections, which Israel fears will bring a president who is not suitable for its agenda, after providing the popular legitimacy that he enjoyed... a space for independence that obstructs the strongly advanced Israeli path towards The desired control, and will also provide him with effective international support even from Israel's friends who can only deal with an elected president, chosen by the Palestinians of their own free will, and through the finest means... the ballot box.

The striking phenomenon that characterizes the different positions on the issue of the Palestinian presidency is that the election condition is completely absent... and that fear of what the elections will produce is the agreed-upon justification for avoiding them. Therefore, "intimidation" is proposed that the elected speaker of the Legislative Council, who is from "Hamas", assume the presidency. Temporary according to the basic system, which is the constitution of the authority, and if this issue is bypassed by agreement or tacit understanding on any alternative, then the story will appear that a “Hamasawi” will win the presidency, and this is enough to rule out the idea of ​​elections. Although, on the other hand, everyone acknowledges that the continuation of the status quo and its withdrawal to the post-Abbas stage... would be the most dangerous and most harmful.

The Palestinian Authority... which is weak and linked, whether or not, to the Israeli umbilical cord... is the first Israeli option; That is, the latter as well, because it is useful in the matter of its desired control, present and future.

However, the continuity of the authority according to what Israel designs for it seems not guaranteed, as it is thus perpetuated as a heavy burden on the millions of Palestinians, who unanimously reject its rule and legitimacy as long as it derives its existence and work space from what Israel allows, and it will also be a permanent candidate for collapse, and this puts Everyone is facing a situation that is impossible to control, and Israel will not escape harm when it finds itself face to face with millions of Palestinians, and the barrier that it used to benefit from in the field of control has been removed.

The situation that is imposed on the Palestinians, through the preservation of the authority weak, and the survival of the occupation, settlement and Israeli control over life, capabilities and prospects, will inevitably lead to disasters produced by vacuum, chaos and lack of reference.

Neither Israel is able to swallow the Palestinian situation, no matter how weak it is, nor is the region able to avoid the catastrophic repercussions of the “chaotic” Palestinian situation, nor the world, which is very comfortable with the current stalemate, will continue to be satisfied when the Palestinian-Israeli track turns into an impossible state of chaos, violence and loss of control.

The closest distance between two points is a straight line.

In order for the prohibited danger not to occur, there must be a proactive action that does not wait for the disaster to occur until it thinks about finding solutions to it, when it is too late.

And because the Palestinian situation is no longer only Palestinian, there is no choice but to Arab, regional and international intervention that encourages the Palestinians first to restore their political system, which has the legitimacy of decision-making, and this was what was available at the time of the strong and effective PLO, and to remove the obstacles that prevent the Palestinians from going to the polls to elect their parliament. Their president, the production of their government, and the opening of a political horizon in which the Palestinians see hope and a path that deserves to be followed, and if that is difficult, then maintaining the status quo is even more difficult.

The stage that our people’s cause is going through is one of the most dangerous stages, as the occupation’s attempts to resolve the conflict in its favor escalate through successive and expanded settlement attacks, and the daily crimes committed against our people, including burning homes and cars, uprooting trees, and burning large areas of land, in addition to the operations of Judaization and Israeliization in the West Bank, especially In the city of Jerusalem and many other violations that amounted to war crimes, including killings of citizens and young men during raids and raids into camps, villages and towns, and continuous and non-stop arrests, even for one day.

Faced with this situation in which the occupying state persists, we are at a clear and obvious crossroads. Either we unite in facing the crimes of the occupation, or we remain as it is of division and fragmentation that only the occupation benefits from, which sees in this its opportunity to work to resolve the conflict in its favour.

In order to get out of this current situation, what is required now is a comprehensive national dialogue that includes all forces, parties and movements as well as national and independent personalities. All issues are discussed, foremost of which is ending the devastating division, developing a unified action strategy with the approval of everyone, and starting work to implement it as soon as possible, especially since the current time is not It works for the benefit of our cause despite our people's confrontation with their bare chests against the occupation forces and herds of settlers who wreaked havoc and havoc on the land in front of the eyes and ears of the world, which suffices to issue statements of denunciation and denunciation that do not fatten or satisfy hunger. He cannot be complacent or accept the existence of the occupation on his land, refuse to leave it, and make huge sacrifices in order to achieve his goals of leaving the occupation and establishing his independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.

Will the factions, forces and the Palestinian Authority respond in order to call for a comprehensive national dialogue, which is the only way now to restore Palestinian affairs to their former state of national unity through which our people were able to achieve important achievements on the road to achieving complete freedom and independence?

Time is running out, and history will not be merciful to anyone who fails to rearrange the Palestinian internal house on the basis of unity, because it is the one that will achieve achievements and also victory over the occupation and its crimes, along with the herds of settlers.

Let us rise to the level of the challenges facing our people and their national cause, and give priority to the supreme national interest over any other interests. At this stage, which is alien to us, we are most in need of a comprehensive national dialogue on the grounds of confronting the occupation and thwarting its liquidation projects and attempts to resolve the conflict in its favour.

Today, Monday, the Israeli Army Radio reported that no homemade missiles have been found so far in Jenin, while factories manufacturing and storing explosive devices have been found.

According to the Hebrew Radio, the Israeli army is focusing its operation on accessing the most dangerous militants and stores of weapons and explosives, noting that the operation may continue for several days.

As reported by Walla Al-Abri, a group of Shin Bet officers are participating in the operation in Jenin to provide intelligence information available to them to the military forces.

While the Israeli army spokesman's office published a message regarding Avi Ballut, commander of the West Bank Division, who is currently leading the operation, in which he said that "the current operation is an opportunity to change the operational reality in the entire West Bank."

Ballout added: "This action will weaken the refugee camp and will be a great deterrent," according to him.

Today, Monday, the Israeli occupation forces arrested 4 citizens in separate areas of the West Bank.

According to local sources, the occupation forces raided Aqabat Jabr camp, south of Jericho, and arrested the boy, Muhammad Rami Maharmeh, after they raided and searched his family's house.

Clashes broke out in the camp, during which the occupation forces fired live bullets, stun grenades and poison gas at the youths, without causing any injuries.

In Bethlehem, the Israeli occupation forces arrested the young man, Saddam Aqel, from Aida camp in the north, and the young man, Nour Mahmoud al-Amor (18 years), from the town of Tuqu' in the south, after raiding and searching the homes of their relatives.

In Ramallah, the released prisoner, Abd al-Hamid Muwafaq al-Rimawi (28 years old), was arrested after his house was raided and searched in the town of Beit Rima.

The Palestinian presidency affirmed that security and stability will not be achieved in the region unless our Palestinian people feel it.

The official spokesman for the presidency, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, said that what the Israeli occupation government is doing in the city of Jenin and its camp is a new war crime against our defenseless people.

He stressed that our Palestinian people will not kneel, will not surrender, will not raise the white flag, and will remain steadfast on their land in the face of this brutal aggression, until the occupation is defeated and freedom is achieved.

The presidential spokesman saluted our Palestinian people in the Jenin camp and in all cities, towns, villages and camps, for their legendary steadfastness in the face of this occupation.

Abu Rudeineh stressed that all these crimes committed by the occupation government and its terrorist settlers will not achieve security and stability for them, unless our Palestinian people feel it.

He called on the international community to break its shameful silence and take serious action to compel Israel to stop its aggression against our Palestinian people, and to hold it accountable for all these crimes.

Palestinian factions confirmed, on Monday, that the operation carried out by the occupation army in Jenin, hours ago, will fail to achieve its objectives.

Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Hamas political bureau, said in a press statement that "the blood shed on the land of Jenin will determine the nature of the next stage in all directions and paths."
