PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) announced that presidential elections along with elections for the PLC will be held simultaneously in Yehuda and Shomron, as well as in Gaza.
He contradicted earlier statements released by an advisor, who stated in Hamas sabotages the election process in Gaza, then elections would only take place in Yehuda and Shomron.
The PA’s Fatah leader added he is planning to call upon the international community to send observers to oversee the election in all areas to ensure they are open, fair and above board.
