UN denounces Israel's use of 'war fighting' methods in West Bank
The United Nations voices serious concerns over the Israeli military's use of force in its raid this week in the West Bank, including methods "developed for war fighting". The Israeli military this week launched a raid in the Jenin area, a hotbed of Palestinian militancy, days into a ceasefire in its war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip. "Israel, as the occupying power, has the responsibility to protect the population in the territory it occupies," says UN human rights office spokesman Thameen Al-Kheetan. SOUNDBITE
