Hamas calls the Palestinian Authority's actions in Jenin ‘complete crime'

Hamas has denounced the Palestinian Authority’s actions in the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank as a ‘complete crime,’ as its forces clash with Palestinian resistance groups.

“The security forces of the Authority practise siege, deliberate killing, arrest, torture and abuse against the free people of our country. The latest crime of the Authority is the cold-blooded execution of a father and his son while they were on the roof of their house in Jenin camp,” a Hamas statement, cited by Al Jazeera, said.

“We mourn the martyrs of our people who were killed by these forces since the beginning of the operation and the siege. We warn of the danger of this encroachment on our social fabric and the future of our cause,” the group said. 

The Palestinian Authority has denied involvement in the killing of a man and his son in Jenin, insisting its forces were not present at the scene during the incident.
