Israeli occupation authorities reopened An Najah University on the occupied West Bank for the first time in more than two weeks after warning that they will no longer tolerate political unrest on campus.

Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin lifted the closing order two days earlier than expected after visiting Nablus to meet with the heads of five West Bank universities.
