"Once again, it is not the first, and unfortunately, I fear, it will not be the last time, we are witnessing a military operation in northern Samaria, in the Jenin Refugee Camp, intent on striking some cells of Palestinian resistance, armed resistance."
A note also issued by the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem states that the Israeli army's assault on Jenin represents an"unprecedented" aggression, with"barbaric acts" that also destroy sacred places and annihilate people who are eager and deserving of a dignified life. The streets of the city, adjacent to the refugee camp, are filled with rubble after drone strikes and damage to shops has been reported. Columns of smoke have been seen on the horizon, while the camp is without water and electricity. Military vehicles are still in the streets and, explained Jenin's Mayor, Nidal Al-Obeidi, those who fled have found accommodation in relatives' homes and shelters.
The action was claimed by Hamas, which spoke of a"heroic attack" as the"first response to the crimes of the occupation" against the people in Jenin. Throughout the West Bank, meanwhile, Palestinians observed a general strike in protest against the operation."These days negotiations between the two sides are almost non-existent," Father Labib Deibes, parish priest in Jenin, told Vatican News.
"I ask the international community," he appealed,"to find a solution to this conflict that has lasted 75 years."Palestinian National Authority President Mahmud Abbas called on the UN and the international community"to intervene urgently to force Israel to stop the evacuation of the inhabitants."
