A coalition of armed Palestinian groups opposing conciliatory approaches toward Israel
Rival Fatah factions and allied Palestinian groups are engaging in talks ahead of November legislative elections. Meetings in Egypt and in the Alamein region aim to bridge rifts within Fatah and coordinate broader opposition to the PA leadership, including potential cooperation with Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Dahlan’s Reform Current. The developments come as Abbas’s circle seeks to present a united front while preparing for a contested election landscape.
Israeli forces have identified 170 Gazan journalists as members of armed groups, a claim the IDF says explains discrepancies with prior reporting. The list includes journalists who were killed during the war, some of whom had worked for international outlets. Palestinian groups say the move erases professional identity and raises questions about evidence.
