JENIN, West Bank - Palestinians returned to the scarred streets of Jenin on Wednesday after Israel ended an unusually intense 48-hour raid on a refugee camp in the West Bank.
Some people were preparing heroes' funerals for the dead, while others set about repairing the 75-year-old refugee camp.
Paving had been churned up by armoured bulldozers, resulting in a burst water pipe and sodden gullies of rubble that residents - many of whom had holed up at home or evacuated as a precaution - traversed with a grim and businesslike gait.
After months of spiralling skirmishes with Jenin's gunmen, Israel on Monday swamped the city's refugee camp with hundreds of commandos backed by combat drones. Commanders said the operation dubbed "Home and Garden"aimed to root out Palestinian militant infrastructure.
