Senior PLO officials calls for emergency meeting of Palestinian factions in Cairo

Azzam al-Ahmad, a member of the executive committees of the PLO and the Central Committee of Fatah, said that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will invite the general secretaries of different Palestinian factions to attend the emergency meeting in Cairo.

President Abbas held a similar meeting during Israel's onslaught on Jenin earlier in the week, in which he announced the Palestinian Authority would halt all cooperation with the occupation authorities.
