The PA volunteered to help, and Israel accepted. They sent four firetrucks and 20 firefighters to help control the blaze.
Now, Palestinians are complaining about their leaders approving doing something humanitarian for Jews.
Social media in Arabic had many posts against the Palestinians helping Israel.
Many of them pointed out that this happened on the same day that Israeli forces killed four armed terrorists in Jenin.Journalist Ibrahim Moqbel said on his Facebook page, "The occupation killed 4 and we sent them 4 fire engines. This is the national project in the religion of Abbas!"
Journalist Alaa al-Rimawi tweeted, "The Minister of Defense of the occupation, responsible for destroying Gaza a few months ago, thanks the Palestinian Authority and the President for sending the Palestinian Civil Defense to participate in putting out the fires in Jerusalem."
One other referred to the Algerian wildfires which Morocco offered to help fight and Algeria refused, saying, "A sad short story. Morocco offers to help Algeria to put out its fires, but the latter refuses, on the pretext that Morocco is allied with Israel. Massive fires erupt in the mountains of Jerusalem, and the Palestinian Authority offers assistance to Israel to put them out, and the latter agrees.” She doesn't seem to be saying that algeria was wrong or stubborn to refuse Moroccan help.
