Hamas commented on Wednesday on the possibility that the Palestinian Authority elections will be canceled, clarifying that "we have no part in postponing or canceling the elections in the Palestinian Authority. The move is a surrender to Israel's veto and pressure from other parties."
In the comments, quoted by Kan 11 News, Hamas added that "solutions must be found to hold the elections in eastern Jerusalem even without coordination with Israel. Israel will be responsible if the elections in the Palestinian Authority are canceled."
