The Palestinian Authority's recent crackdown on armed groups in Jenin is seen as an attempt to restore its authority and prove its utility to Israel and the U.S.
Critics argue that the PA's operations serve Israeli interests, undermining the Palestinian struggle for self-determination, especially highlighted by the killing of journalist Shatha Sabbagh.
Omar Rahman noted that the PA's efforts reflect a desperate attempt to demonstrate relevance in a climate where there's pressure on it to collapse from Israeli officials.
The increase in Israeli raids resulting in over 700 Palestinian deaths this year heightens tensions, complicating the PA's security operations and public perception.
