Illustration by baba

What happened

  1. 01Postponing Palestinian legislative elections until September could mean another year of political division.
  2. 02A delay, especially without national consensus, would deepen existing rifts and weaken the system's legitimacy.
  3. 03The Palestinian political system is described as "incapable and hybrid," unable to face national challenges.
  4. 04Postponement implies a continued lack of unified national strategy and effective resistance.
  5. 05The delay is seen as a disregard for the Palestinian people's right to choose their representatives.

It also signifies a continued evasion of national responsibilities and a disregard for the Palestinian people's right to elect their representatives.
