The Israeli military fired warning shots at a large delegation of European and Arab diplomats on an official visit to the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank on Wednesday, drawing swift condemnation.
Delegations from more than 20 countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Canada and others, were on an official mission to see the humanitarian situation in the besieged camp, according to the Palestinian Authority’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which called the incident a “deliberate and unlawful act.”
Videos on social media show delegation members giving media interviews when shots are heard ringing out close to the group and forcing it to run for cover.

In an ideal world yes, but we’re talking about an extremist government that has some of the world’s heaviest weapons as well as nukes. And given their decades long bleating like sheep about how they’re the victims they will no doubt burn the world before that happens.
I’d love nothing more than to have a court order the two populations to swap places, to see how they like living in an open air prison. I mentioned sanctions because they are the only realistic option at the moment.
