Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Russian Police Trainers Arrive in Palestinian Territories
2005-10-16
DEBKA says the Egyptians deliberately opened the border on Yom Kippur to let them in - and it is a violation of their agreement with Israel. But the <Jerusalem Post takes a more sanguine view.


A number of Russian police officers have arrived in Gaza and the West Bank to train Palestinian police and security forces, the Palestinian Ministry of Interior said in a statement on Saturday.

But the ministry didn't say how many Russian officers arrived in the Palestinian territories and how long they would stay.

Russia has promised to assist the Palestinian security apparatuses in training and donate 55 armored vehicles and light weapons to the Palestinian security forces.
