Mahmoud al-Habash, a senior advisor to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, expressed hope that Israeli voters will elect a political faction committed to peace. Speaking days before Israeli elections, al-Habash stated that the Palestinian side is more concerned with a party's political platform than with the specific candidate for prime minister. "We hope that Israeli voters and citizens will lean towards the camp of peace, towards peace, security, and mutual coexistence. The name of the Israeli prime minister does not interest us. We are interested in a political plan that will comply with international law and establish peace with the Palestinians," al-Habash said.

His remarks come amid the Israeli election campaign. The original article's author suggests this statement reflects the Palestinian Authority's interest in seeing a change from the current right-wing government led by Benjamin Netanyahu.
