PT: Strike ongoing in Jenin as of May 23
Strike ongoing in Jenin, Palestinian Territories, Ma 23. Associated demonstrations likely.
A strike is ongoing in the West Bank city of Jenin May 23. The action is in response to an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) raid in the city, which left at least 7 people dead and 15 injured.
The strike is likely to be accompanied by some protests in response to the ongoing violence in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Associated demonstrations are likely. Strike-related business and transport disruptions are likely through late May 23. Civil unrest and violence, which have peaked in recent months and been exacerbated by the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, are also likely to persist.
Avoid all protests due to the potential for clashes. Heed the advice of security personnel. Allow additional time to reach destinations in affected areas May 23. Reconfirm business appointments and transportation services.
