Angry PA says UN envoy 'no longer acceptable'

The Palestinian Authority (PA) leadership announced on Thursday it will no longer work with UN peace envoy Nickolay Mladenov, accusing him of overstepping his role by seeking a deal between Israel and Hamas, AFP reported.

Ahmed Majdalani, a member of the Palestine Liberation Organization's (PLO) executive committee, said it had informed the UN secretary general that Mladenov was "no longer acceptable" to the PA government.
