(DCNF)—After taking heavy losses from Israeli forces, Hamas is now picking fights with the Palestinian Authority (PA) as its manpower continues to dwindle, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Gaza-based Islamic terrorist organization Hamas and the PA, which governs much of the West Bank, have been ramping up fighting over the course of December, according to the WSJ Wednesday. The renewed fighting between Hamas and the PA comes during a period of high losses and bloodshed, with Israeli authorities claiming to have killed over half of the terrorist group’s total fighters since the start of the war, along with pressures to negotiate peace by an incoming Trump administration.
The victor could determine who serves as the face of the Palestinian cause, according to the WSJ. The most recent fighting has centered around Jenin refugee camp, which has long been a center of anti-Israel activity in the West Bank.
“The goal of this operation is to restore control of the Jenin Camp from the control of outlaws, who have embittered the daily lives of citizens,” PA Brig. Gen. Anwar Rajab said Dec. 14, according to the WSJ.
The groups have been at odds before, taking part in a battle over the town of Fatah in 2007, resulting in the Hamas takeover after a PA defeat, according to the WSJ.
The Biden administration has long proposed the PA as a viable alternative to govern the Gaza Strip in place of Hamas, however Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not share his view, saying the PA is still too anti-Israel, according to the WSJ.
“This truth I tell to our American friends, and I put the brakes on the attempt to coerce us to a reality that would endanger the state of Israel,” Netanyahu said in Jan. 2024 regarding the possibility of a PA-lead state after the war, according to NPR.
Israel said it has no involvement in the operations, but also added that they have common enemies with the PA, namely Hamas, according to the WSJ.
If the PA succeeds in fighting Hamas, it could signal a “shift” in the region where the PA might focus on uprooting Hamas presence from other towns in the West Bank, Michael Milstein, a former senior intelligence officer for Palestinian affairs in the Israeli army, told the WSJ.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
