Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - RAMALLAH — Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas issued a decree Saturday setting presidential and legislative elections for September 11, 2027, postponing a previously scheduled legislative vote amid concerns over Israeli restrictions and conditions on the ground.
The decree calls for simultaneous elections to choose the president of the State of Palestine and members of the Palestinian Legislative Council, with Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip invited to participate, according to the official Palestinian news agency Wafa.
The new decree revokes an earlier decision that had scheduled legislative elections for November 28, 2026.
According to Wafa, the decision followed consultations between the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), Palestinian factions and political forces.
The consultations resulted in a national consensus that Israeli measures had created obstacles to holding elections on the previously scheduled date.
Palestinian leaders also agreed on the need to establish appropriate political, security and on-the-ground conditions to ensure free, fair and inclusive elections.
The decree establishes a new timetable for both presidential and parliamentary elections, although their implementation will depend on the conditions necessary to conduct voting across the Palestinian territories.
