Jenin invasion
2004-01-16
Aljazeera correspondent in Jenin reported that the Israeli occupation forces, backed by about 20 military vehicles, penetrated into the city of Jenin on Thursday. Witnesses told our correspondent that fighters from the group of Martyr Ziad al-Amir of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades were fighting the occupation forces from all directions. "The occupation forces carried out raid and search campaigns on houses in the East Quarter (Al-Hay al-Sharqi) and west of the city," said the correspondent. "Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in Jenin refugee camp issued a statement in which they vowed to carry out 'painful' attacks in the heart of Israel in retaliation for the attempted assassination of Zakariya al-Zubaidi, the leader of al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in the West Bank", the correspondent added.
Y'think that might be why they came to Jenin?
