The Biden administration warns Israel from the collapse of the PA and calls on it to act to strengthen it.
Senior security officials in Israel claim that the PA leadership has lost the motivation to fight terrorism, and Israel is looking for ways to encourage the PA to change its new path.
The PA Chairman Abu Mazen's rule has weakened, he has completely lost control of the Jenin and Nablus regions and a security vacuum has been created in the area which is being filled by armed terrorists.
Abu Mazen's political and public status is at a low ebb, which limits his ability to send the PA's security forces to enforce law and order in the northern West Bank.
The Israeli security establishment fears the escalation in the West Bank and the possibility of an armed popular intifada breaking out by the end of the year.
The PA's power on the ground is weakening, the succession battle at the top of the PA is intensifying and the political echelon must make a decision on a major military operation in northern West bank to curb the spread of terrorist activity.
PA Chairman Abu Mazen plans to oust Tawfik al-Tirawi, a member of the Fatah leadership from the movement on charges of corruption in order to make it easier for Hussein al-Sheikh in the battle of succession.
Al-Tirawi who was the head of Palestinian intelligence holds many secrets including the file of the death of Yasser Arafat, Will he open Pandora's box?
Hussein al-Sheikh, the designated successor of Abu Mazen, began an important move to take over the key positions in the Fatah movement in the territories.
On the Palestinian street there is a fear of an increase in the phenomenon of internal assassinations in the West Bank because Hussein al-Sheikh's political opponents have armed militias in various places in the West Bank
The succession battle in the PA is heating up and Hussein al-Sheikh is working to oust his opponent Tawfik Al-Tirawi from the leadership of the Fatah movement with the full backing of PA Chairman Abu Mazen.
The Saudi website "Ilaf" published an investigative report by the PA on acts of corruption attributed to Tawfik al-Tirawi.
PA Chairman Abu Mazen is again trying to promote a political initiative to obtain full membership for the state of "Palestine" in the UN.
Israel strongly opposes his initiative and is working to thwart it.
The assessment in Israel is that Abu Mazen intiative will fail because of the Biden administration's opposition to the move.
The voices are increasing in the European Union and in the Palestinian street for holding general elections in order to bring about a change in the situation of the residents of the territories.
Abu Mazen does not want elections now he fears he will be defeated.
The recent events in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip reflected the continued weakening of the Palestinian Authority and Abu Mazen's rule.
The anger against him on the Palestinian street is increasing, the Islamic Jihad has strengthened in the northern West Bank, the succession battle is intensifying and the Hamas organization is increasing its influence in the international and Arab arena
