Resistance fighters clash with Israeli-backed Palestinian security forces in the West Bank

Al Jazeera Arabic have reported armed confrontations between resistance fighters and Israeli-backed Palestinian security forces in the town of Tamoun, located south of Tubas in the occupied West Bank.

The clashes erupted after Palestinian security personnel confiscated equipment from a residential property in the area, escalating tensions.

Last week, the Israeli army reportedly expressed satisfaction with a recent operation conducted by PA forces in the Jenin refugee camp, according to the Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA).

Over the past two weeks, operations under Israeli military oversight have involved approximately 300 armed PA personnel.

Israel's Central Command has recommended strengthening the PA’s security apparatus and increasing coordination.

Following this advice, the Israeli security cabinet instructed the army to bolster its collaboration with PA forces.

At least two security officers from the Palestinian Authority have been killed while targeting Palestinian resistance fighters. 

The PA's operations are carried out in collaboration with Israel and under its oversight.
