Six Palestinian thugs jailed in Bethlehem escaped after their families attacked and took control of the prison. Palestinian police said they put up some resistance but up to 70 people, including family members, stormed the prison where the men were jailed when the Palestinian Authority came under international pressure to crush militants. The men belonged to an armed group which is linked to President Yasser Arafat's Fatah faction, and to the Islamic Jihad group.what exactly does the authority mean in "Palestinian Authority"?
