The newly appointed Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah has offered his resignation to President Mahmoud Abbas, a government source said. Hamdallah “presented his resignation in writing to the president following disagreements with his two deputies,” a PA official told the AFP news agency on Thursday on condition of anonymity. Hamdallah was sworn in on June 6 after his predecessor Salam Fayyad stepped down in April. Abbas had asked Hamdallah, the former head of al-Najah University in the Israeli-occupied West Bank city of Nablus, to form a new government.
