Flanked by his special presidential guards, Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas visited the West Bank city of Jenin on Wednesday, promising the crowd that the refugee camp will be rebuilt after the Israeli operation.
He addressed the crowds at the edge of the camp, where torn-up streets and burnt-out buildings bear witness to the intensity of the biggest Israeli operation in the occupied West Bank in 20 years.
"The heroic Jenin camp stood against the aggression sacrificed its casualties and offered all it has for the sake of the homeland," Abbas said.
Palestinian Authority security forces, including members of Abbas' own presidential guard unit, have been deployed in large numbers in Jenin after the tensions with other factions burst out into the open during the funeral last week.
