  • Story Text: Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO) leader Yasser Arafat arrived in Jenin in the West Bank on Sunday (November 19) for the first time since Israeli troops left the city last week after 28 years of occupation, witnesses said.

    Arriving by helicopter, Arafat was set to convene a meeting of the Palestinian Authority in the city, the first to be transferred to the PLO since a September peace deal with Israel extending Palestinian self-rule in the West Bank.
