The Jewish Insurgency in Wieniec is an ongoing low-intensity insurgency that began in 1731 after the Minority Rights Act was passed by the parliament which caused rioting and protests in the Północne Voivodeship. The Jewish Workers Bunt took advantage of the situation and were able to stage an insurgency.
Context
The insurgency is a direct continuation of the Amburi Street Riots which lasted from 1729 to 1730, with JWB, a splinter faction of the International Jewish Resistance Movement continuing armed opposition against the Wieniec Government.
Course of the insurgency
Since the end of the Amburi Street Riots in Wieniec in early 1730 which was declared as the government's victory over the Socialist Party and International Jewish Resistance Movement and widely seen as a return to stability, and declared as such by Wieniec's Minister Kajtek Bezmajtek, multiple incidents of violence have occurred being carried out by the conflicting sides, despite Wieniec's declaration of victory.
JWB fighters also reportedly move through villages during the day without interference from security forces, and locals have been asked by JWB to give fighters food and give information on the whereabouts of Wieniec personnel, locals have also stated that JWB fighters will frequently enter into Synagogues and ask for money to fund the insurgency. Among JWB's operations include assassinations, kidnappings, raids and ambushes.
