Palestinian factions agreed to a future unity government and to hold national elections.

But the idea of holding Palestinian elections seems a long way off given the current destruction and humanitarian crisis, especially in the Gaza Strip .

Any democratic process including Hamas whose leadership Israeli forces have spent a year trying to eliminate following the the group's attack of Oct. 7, 2023 would be vehemently opposed by Israel .

Many Palestinians see Abbas and his government as a “puppet authority,” propped up by Israel and the U.S. Maha Nassar : A future Palestinian government will only be credible if it represents the will of the people.

But to have any chance of succeeding, such a body would need to be Palestinian -led, she says.
