The Palestinian people are returning to the Jenin camp after the occupation forces withdrew from it, and the resistance fighters are roaming the streets, an Al Mayadeen correspondent reported early Wednesday.

Several Israeli media outlets reported, quoting a spokesman for the Israeli occupation forces, that "Israeli forces have begun withdrawing from Jenin."

The Israeli occupation forces began to leave the camp shortly after 9 PM on Tuesday, Israeli Channel 7 and Channel 13 reported.

"The violent clashes near Jenin Hospital forced the army to evacuate the area with air support," while the Al-Quds Brigades - Jenin Brigade confirmed that its fighters were still targeting the occupation forces and vehicles in numerous regions.

Palestinian freedom fighters attacked the Israeli occupation forces using IEDs and took up arms against them, with one of the explosive devices destroying an armored vehicle, which resulted in several confirmed casualties among the Israeli occupation forces, a field commander in the Al-Quds Brigades in the Jenin refugee camp told Al Mayadeen on Tuesday.

"The scale and intensity of the confrontations on the second day were fierce and direct, with the freedom fighters detonating new explosive devices, including powerful roadside bombs," the Palestinian commander said.

"Our forces opened fire and prevented the advancement of occupation soldiers, dealing damages to and causing casualties among the enemy forces," he added.

Moreover, the Palestinian military commander commented on Israeli reports regarding a partial IOF withdrawal from the vicinity of the Jenin refugee camp, saying the resistance does not take into consideration the news about the withdrawal. "We call on the resistance fighters to be cautious, not to disperse, and to follow the instructions of the leadership of the Jenin Brigade."

"The resistance groups are still engaged in the confrontation, and the alleged withdrawal by the enemy is a tactical maneuver aimed at redeployment," the commander added.

The Jenin Brigade announced in a statement that its fighters "discovered an Israeli special force in the Jenin camp square and managed to thwart its mission," and that they "dealt with the special force swiftly and targeted it with intense gunfire and explosive devices."  

The Brigade clarified that its fighters "attacked the occupation forces at Al-Asfour Roundabout with intense and concentrated gunfire and explosive devices," as they also engaged in fierce confrontations with the intruding forces on the Cinema axis in the camp.  

This comes as the Israeli occupation continues its aggression on the city and camp of Jenin in the occupied West Bank for the second day in a row, while Palestinian Resistance fighters bravely confront Israeli occupation forces with barrages of bullets and detonating explosive devices.
