Where do the weapons of the West Bank resistance come from?

An article published today in The Cradle written by Qassem S. Qassem outlines in detail where the resistance gets its weapons from, the role of the Axis of Resistance, and how tactics of arms supply have evolved. Our summary is below:
—
• Jordanian parliament member Imad Al-Adwan was arrested in April by the IOF for smuggling over 200 guns and gold into the West Bank. Zionist intelligence sources report that he had successfully smuggled goods into Palestine at least a dozen times prior. Al-Adwan was arrested due to a tip by Jordanian intelligence.

• 1,600 weapons from Jordan have been siezed by zionist border guards in the two years. A previous report indicated that many of these weapons are used for internal quarrels, while some are harbored by Fatah militias awaiting the day that Mahmoud Abbas is no longer president.

• The goal of many recent IOF raids into the West Bank is to confiscate weapons. Zionist concerns are not only about smuggled weapons, but those purchased by resistance fighters from black market sources within occupied Palestine.

• Arms smuggling into the West Bank has increased from Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and the occupied interior, with different types of weapons coming from different regions. Soviet weapons come in through Syria, while American weapons come through Jordan. Zionist leaderships view the situation as a strategic threat requiring joint action, hinting at an inevitable and imminent large-scale West Bank invasion of the northern West Bank.

• The reasons for the shift to firearms are because the Palestinian Authority's control has weakened, economic conditions have deteriorated, and resistance tactics have evolved, moving from knives and Molotov cocktails to guns. 2022 saw a large increase in resistance operations and a doubling in the number of settlers killed in resistance operations compared to 2021.

• Zionist attempts to control arms smuggling have led to a significant increase in weapons prices, making smuggling attempts more lucrative. Most arms dealers buy from the "israeli" black market, often through theft from military bases. M4 rifles cost $30,000, 6 times the price in Lebanon, and an AK47 costs $20,000, over 25 times the price in Lebanon. Old M16s cost $16,000 and Glock pistoles cost $15,000, over 10x the standard price. The iconic Palestinian-made Carlo is not in high demand due to its faults.

• The prices of bullets in Palestine have skyrocketed to $15 each, up from $2 in 2021 (with a sub-dollar cost in Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq). These price increases are lucrative, leading to increased smuggling attempts.

• Much of the smuggling is headed by Iran—whose leader, Ali Khamenei, advocated for arming the West Bank "as the only solution to confront this brutal entity"—and Hezbollah, which oversees 95% of the large-scale weapons smuggling from Lebanon. Hezbollah decided, after the Dignity Uprising of 2021 (in which Palestinians of the occupied interior rose up with the entire homeland) to flood occupied Palestine with light weapons in preparation for the "zero hour."

• Despite zionist efforts to curtail arms smuggling into the West Bank, resistance factions have adopted new strategies such as domestically purchasing weapons or using drones for smuggling (such as those recently intercepted case from Syria). This has led to the evolution of arming strategies; since weapons themselves can't get in, supporters have opted to financially support resistance fighters so that they can buy weapons at the exorbitant prices. This is why Imad Al-Adwan was carrying gold and why the PA abducted Lions' Den fighter Musab Shtayyeh for allegedly transferring Hamas funds to the Lions' Den. In March, the IOF also abducted fighters in Nablus and Jenin on charges of receiving large sums of cash through Fatah affiliates.

• With zionists besieged on all fronts and on the inside, a large-scale invasion of the northern West Bank is imminent, but this will not come without a high cost to the zionists.

Confronting the occupation forces and their vehicles at dawn today:

A failed attempt was made by the enemy army at dawn today to lure the fighters to confrontation and clash points that had been previously prepared for targeting them, but by help of Allah and the high vigilance of our fighters, the fighters were on the lookout for them.

Our fighters were able to deliver intensive strikes with barrages of bullets and explosive devices towards the occupation forces and their vehicles on multiple fronts, achieving direct hits.

Our fighters engaged in fierce clashes near Tawalbeh Mosque, and detonated a number of explosive devices in the occupation forces and their vehicles, which forced them to retreat after their plans failed. Our fighters engaged in clashes in both the Jordanian area and Haifa Street, where they rained down on the occupation forces with intense gunfire and explosive devices.

After the failure of the enemy's plans, the Brigade carried out violent attacks towards the occupation forces and took an attacking position. Our fighters became the pursuers rather than the pursued. Our fighters chased the occupation's vehicles that retreated dragging their tails of disappointment after they tasted various kinds of torment.

Our jihad is continuous and our weapons are open on all fronts.

It is a jihad of victory or martyrdom.
