Declassified reveals the UK has seven army and air force personnel in the West Bank, training Palestinian security forces. Palestinian protesters face British-trained security units in the West Bank, Jordan and Lebanon. Lebanese authorities receive UK-funded training to prevent ‘flash points’ among ‘volatile communities’ in Palestinian refugee camps. Jordanian riot police squad at last week’s West Bank border protest was UK-trained. The project — the Capability, Accountability, Sustainability and Inclusivity Programme — provides support to the internal security forces of the Palestinian Authority (PA), the interim government in the West Bank which was created in 1994 as part of the Oslo Accords. It cost £3.3-million last year.
