NewzHamas plans to participate in the upcoming Palestinian Legislative Council elections scheduled for November 28, marking the first such vote in 20 years. According to reports, the group has identified the Al-Aqsa Mosque as its core priority for the election cycle.
The last Palestinian legislative elections took place in January 2006, resulting in a Hamas victory where the group secured 74 seats, ahead of its rival Fatah. The upcoming November vote will re-establish the legislative body after a two-decade hiatus.
