Tens of PA police officers who were forced to take early retirement are protesting at the way they were sacked. In the meantime security circles warned of mutiny in Gaza. The protesting officers gathered at the (Saraya) government building Thursday afternoon to protest what they called the insulting method used by the PA ministry of interior to announce the names of officers to be sacked. The ministry published the names in lists that were posted on walls of government buildings in Gaza city, an act which angered the officers. One of the officers commented saying: "This was not the way to deal with the first soldiers who lit the Palestinian revolution and were disbursed all over the world carrying their souls on the palms of their hands to defend the Palestinian dignity." Even General Majaydeh heard of his sacking from the newspapers after spending fifty years in his uniform, the officers retort angrily.
