Bloody Friday In Jenin & Across Palestine
Sounds Like Freedom | 10.11.2003 11:04 | Repression | World
Defense Forces
Things are back to normal in Jenin, lots of Jeysh. Yesturday they came
into Hora Sharkiya(east Jenin) in large numbers, surrounded a house,
killed one wanted man, from al-aqsa, and wounded two other people, a
boy
who was shot in the stomach and a young man, possibly a fighter, who
lost
a hand. This morning they attacked the camp In similarly large numbers.
I
saw one boy less than ten shot in the leg, and at least one person was
killed. People have said that it was a 12 year old boy, but Al-Jazeera
says a 19 year old was killed. Its possible that both are true as some
people are saying that there have been two shaheed this morning. The
soldiers blew up a house in the camp, no one was there at the time, but
we
saw two families being evacuated from adjacent houses. One of them was
Nidals family. Then the soldiers exploded the house and we were
showedred
with debris. All of the surrounding houses were dammaged, with many
windows in a large radius smashed and some walls partially collapsed. I
sat with Nidal who was in tears afterwards. They still have not fixed
the
dammage from last time their house was attacked.

hello
here's a short report of the events in Jenin this morning.At around
7:00
this morning the Israeli Occupation force enterred the Jenin
Refugee camp. They closed up an operation zone at the edge of the camp.
There were at east 6 tanks, APCs and 8 jeeps on site, plus others
around the camp, and more than two Appache helicopters. The IOF was met
with some resistance fire and responded with heavy gunfire. The IOF
then
blew a whole in a house and sent in a palestinian, using him as an
human
shield, after which they followed him and placed explosives around the
house which they blew up at around 10:20. The house was empty except
for
all the possesions of the family living there. The blast badly damaged
all
the surrounding house.
The IOF then left Jenin at around 11:00.
One young boy was killed by the IOF in the camp (Haretz claimed he was
a Hammas millitant...), another person is said to have been killed but
this is unconfirmed as of yet. One small boy was shot in the leg in the
perimeter of the operation.
