Mohammed Shtayyeh has resigned as head of the Palestinian Authority government in the West Bank, UNN reports with reference to Cable News Network.
Details
Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh said at a press conference that he had submitted his resignation to President Mahmoud Abbas at the opening of a government meeting in Ramallah, in the West Bank. He explained that the reason for this step was the latest developments in the region, including the war in Gaza. The Prime Minister of the 18th government of the Palestinian Authority has been in office since 2019.
AddendumAddendum
Mohammed Shtayyeh is considered a loyal employee of Mahmoud Abbas. According to media reports, he will continue to serve as head of the interim government. The formation of a new national consensus government could take weeks or a month, with success depending primarily on whether the war in the Gaza Strip is brought to an end and whether Israeli forces can be withdrawn from the coastal zone under international monitoring.
