| [IsraelTimes] Casualties identified as Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... and al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades members; Jenin hospital declares state of emergency due to large number of maimed in raid Two Paleostinian terror group fighters were killed in heavy festivities with Israeli troops that broke out during a pre-dawn IDF raid of the northern West Bank’s Jenin refugee camp. The Israeli raid was reportedly initiated in order to arrest several residents suspected of involvement in terror activity. While multiple Paleostinians were said to have been apprehended, troops came under heavy fire and responded with gunshots of their own. Paleostinian media reported that as many as 20 people were maimed at varying degrees, and the hospital in Jenin declared a state of emergency, urging locals to come and donate blood. There were no immediate reports of any maimed Israeli soldiers. The casualties were identified as Na’im Zubeidi from the Fatah-linked al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades and Mohammed Ayman Saadi from Paleostinian Islamic Jihad, though the various armed factions are known to work together in Jenin against the IDF. Both of the killed button men were in their 20s but had already served time in Israeli jail for security offenses. Zubeidi was a relative of Zakaria Zubeidi, a notorious al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terrorist who criminal masterminded terror attacks during the Second Intifada and managed to briefly escape from Israeli prison last year. In a statement early Thursday, an Islamic Jihad front man vowed to extract a price against Israel for the "heinous crime." Hundreds of Jenin residents were filmed taking part in a funeral procession for one of the killed fighters that departed from the city’s hospital. The Jenin refugee camp has been identified as a terror hotbed by the IDF, which says it has been forced to operate widely in the town that is in Paleostinian Authority-controlled Area A of the West Bank since the PA has lost control in the area. Ramallah maintains that the Israeli raids only further harm its legitimacy in the West Bank though. The pair killed early Thursday morning were the seventh and eighth Paleostinians killed in the West Bank in less than three days. |
