> In an interview with FRANCE 24, Palestinian activist Samer Sinijlawi said postponing the first legislative elections in 20 years until September 2027 was “a terrible disappointment” for a generation that has never voted. He rejected Israeli restrictions as an excuse, pointing instead to ageing Palestinian leaders’ rejection of change.
