Hussein Elsheikh, PLO Succession, Palestinian Elections
Mahmoud Abbas has named Hussein Elsheikh as the first-ever Vice President of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Elsheikh, a veteran politician who spent 11 years in an Israeli prison, is seen as Abbas's hand-picked successor to appease Western powers. The move comes as international pressure mounts for reform within Palestinian governance following the war in Gaza.
