The Palestinian Authority is rapidly losing control of the northern West Bank, where hundreds of gunmen belonging to the ruling Fatah faction and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) have increased their presence and activities in recent months. The gunmen from the armed wings of Fatah and PIJ, al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades and Al-Quds Brigades have stepped up their attacks on settlers and IDF soldiers and installations.
