The chairman of the Palestinian Authority, Abu Mazen, said at the beginning of the meeting of the members of the PLO's executive committee today (Thursday) in Ramallah - that the Palestinian leadership will continue to take all the measures made available to it by international law, and this to act against the measures of the Israeli government.
In his words, Abu Mazen also referred to Minister Itamar Ben Gabir's ascension to the Temple Mount a few days ago and said that "the invasion of Al-Aqsa is the beginning of the implementation of the Netanyahu government's policy, which we strongly reject. However, we have heard a lot of opposition to this from various countries and from within Israel itself, Because many groups in Israeli society rejected this policy, not out of love for us, but out of protection for the State of Israel and its future. It is impossible to remain silent about the plans presented by the Netanyahu government."

Palestinian sources said that the Palestinian Authority will decide to focus in the next phase mainly on increasing political and international pressure on Israel.
According to them, there is a proposal to boycott the Netanyahu government, but "it is doubtful that the Authority will be able to fully implement this, and it will have to leave their channels open."
