Fatah

November 15 is also the birthday of Arafat's successor as PA leader, Mahmoud Abbas, who was born in Safed during the British Mandate in 1935.

A Fatah spokesperson mentioned the importance of Hamas feeling "involved in the political process" to prevent further radical manifestations of the terror group.

Speaking to BBC Persian in the West Bank village of Kabar, Barghouti’s cousin said he was “80% certain” that he would soon be released.

According to the new clause, elections for a new president will be held over a three-month period, according to Israeli media, during which al-Sheikh would act as president.

Fatah held elections in Lebanon as Mahmoud Abbas seeks closer ties with Beirut. The vote highlights Fatah’s influence among Palestinians and hints at post-Abbas dynamics.

Despite everything that has happened between us over these past two years, we Palestinians and Israelis must open our hearts and minds and allow our wounds the chance to heal.

Qatari outlet Al-Araby TV reported, citing a Palestinian source, that Barghouti was "beaten and assaulted" as he was being transferred between Israeli security prisons.

Abbas vowed peace to UK PM Starmer even as Fatah glorified the murder of six Israelis in Jerusalem and pledged lifelong stipends to the killers’ families.

"The shocking footage illustrates how the terrorist organization Hamas oppresses the population, abuses civilians, and uses unrestrained violence against people."

Lebanon will begin implementing long-negotiated efforts to disarm Hezbollah and Palestinian factions in refugee camps, in an attempt to combat the possession of arms by pro-terror groups.
