Jerusalem and the Temple Mount compound
- On June 5, 2022, the eve of the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, several hundred Jews entered the Temple Mount compound. Their presence enraged the Palestinians at the site, who threw rocks at them. Senior Hamas sources noted that what happened in Jerusalem demanded a response, but one the “resistance” [i.e., the terrorist organizations] considered correct. Spokesmen for the PA foreign ministry and Hamas again objected to the presence of Jews in the Temple Mount compound. A Hamas spokesman called on the Palestinian people to go to al-Aqsa mosque and confront the Israeli security forces at the site (Hamas Telegram channel, June 5, 2022).
- Hamas spokesman Abd al-Latif al-Qanua said the “forced entries” of settlers were part of the ongoing Zionist plan to divide prayer times and places in al-Aqsa mosque between Jews and Muslims and to take control of the site. He called on the Palestinian people to continue clashing and repelling the settlers “forcing their way” into al-Aqsa mosque. He said the “struggle” for al-Aqsa was the struggle of all Palestinians. He added that they would not be silent regarding Israel’s “crimes” in the mosque, and would make Israel pay a price (Hamas website, June 5, 2022).
- Muhammad Hamada, Hamas spokesman for east Jerusalem affairs, said the Hamas-led “resistance” would not allow the events at al-Aqsa mosque to pass without a suitable response. He claimed that Israel’s actions for the so-called “Jewish holidays” were in fact crude aggression against al-Aqsa mosque. He said the “resistance’s” stated position was that al-Aqsa mosque was a red line and what Israel was doing crossed red lines (Felesteen, June 5, 2022).
- Senior Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) figure Khaled al-Batash said the joint operations room would not sit idly by without responding to Israel’s actions. He claimed the organization’s military wings in Jenin, Tulkarm and Nablus pushed back Israeli forces on a daily basis. He said the way to stop Israel was to repel its forces by means [of the activities carried out by] tens of thousands of Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria residents, and by blocking roads (Dunia al-Watan, June 5, 2022).

- The PA condemned his death and claimed the silence of the international community and United States administration protected Israel from bearing responsibility and prevented Israel from getting the punishment it deserved (Wafa, June 2, 2022). Hamas and the PIJ claimed the “blood of the martyrs” fueled the Palestinians’ continued “resistance”” and that the “crimes of the occupation” would not break their spirit or defeat them (Hamas Telegram channel, PIJ propaganda unit Telegram channel, June 2, 2022).
- On June 2, 2022, a Palestinian threw a Molotov cocktail at an IDF force near Ramallah. In response the soldiers shot and killed him (IDF spokesman’s Twitter account, June 2, 2022).

Hamas condemns Israeli government decision to build in Jerusalem
- Hamas condemned the decision of the Israeli government to construct dwelling units in Jerusalem. Hamas called the decision part of Israel’s attempt to increase its control over Jerusalem and “Judaize” the city. Hamas claimed the plan was a gross violation of international law, adding the widening the circle of clashes with “the occupation” and the ongoing clashes in the cities and refugee camps in the West Bank would deter “the occupation” and cause it to stop its “aggression” against the Palestinian people (Hamas Telegram channel, June 3, 2022).
PIJ-Iranian relations
- PIJ leader Ziyad al-Nakhalah gave a speech for the anniversary of Khomeini’s death. He praised him, claiming that the Islamic Revolution had given others the courage to “resist” the “Israeli occupation.” He added that the Palestinian people were the most prominent factor in the “struggle against the spread of Zionism” and that the “struggle” could not exist without the courage of the Palestinian people, the “resistance” [i.e., terrorist organizations} and the political and material support provided by Iran (Paltoday, June 3, 2022).
PA activity in the wake of recent events in Jerusalem
- Mahmoud Abbas spoke on the phone with American Secretary of State Antony Blinken to inform him of the PA’s decision to take steps to deal with “Israeli’s escalation,” following the international community’s inability to force Israel to obey international resolutions and the American administration’s silence in the face of [alleged] “Israeli provocations.” He said the American administration had to do more than condemn Israel’s actions, it had to take the PLO off its list of designated terrorist organizations. Blinken reiterated the administration’s commitment to the two-state solution, stopping the expansion of the settlements and preserving the status quo. He also related to the administration’s commitment to reopen the American consulate in Jerusalem and to the importance of completing the investigation into the death of Shireen Abu Akleh, who held American citizenship (State Department website, May 31; Wafa, June 1, 2022).
- Mahmoud Abbas met in Ramallah with Ayman al-Safadi, the Jordanian foreign minister, and informed him the PA was on the brink of making decisions to deal with Israel’s “escalation” in Jerusalem. Al-Safadi said Jordan supported the Palestinians and criticized the events in Jerusalem, Israel’s [alleged] violations and “settlers’ crimes” (Wafa, the Jordanian News Agency, May 31, 2022).
- Hussein al-Sheikh, PA minister of civilian affairs and a member of the PLO’s Executive Committee, held a press conference with the Jordanian foreign minister. Hussein al-Sheikh said the Palestinian leadership was considering making difficult decisions because of the events in al-Aqsa. He said the PA was in contact with international agencies to avoid having to make the decisions. In the meantime, the PA informed the American administration it had to create a political horizon and keep its promises to the PA (Amad, June 4, 2022).
- Mahmoud Abbas spoke on the phone with French President Emanuel Macron. He told him the PA intended to take steps against what it called “Israel’s escalation” in view of the international community’s inability to force Israel to obey international resolutions. PA Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh told the weekly PA government meeting that “the occupation” would “no longer exist” it if were tried for its violations and if there were an international will to stop it.
- The London-based daily newspaper al-Sharq al-Awsat quoted “PA sources” as saying Mahmoud Abbas told the United States, Egypt and Jordan that he had decided to implement the decisions passed by the PLO’s Central Council, including revoking recognition of Israel.[2] The “reasons” were Israel’s “attacks” on the Palestinians and the United States’ not meeting its commitments, including reopening its consulate in Jerusalem. According to the “sources,” Mahmoud Abbas became convinced he could no longer wait and that without making critical decisions it would be impossible to rescue the political process.
- The sources added that he was taking the approach in light of what the Palestinians called Israel’s “escalation against the Palestinians” [sic], its changing the status quo of the holy sites, the inability of the United States to stop Israel and its failure to keep its promises to the PA, especially the reopening of the American consulate in east Jerusalem. Also factored into his decision was the fact the Jordanian and Egyptian efforts had not convinced the American administration to adopt a political plan (al-Sharq al-Awsat, June 1, 2022).
Muhammad Shtayyeh’s possible resignation
- According to the London-based newspaper Ra’i al-Yawm, the Palestinian media recently reported the possibility of replacements for PA Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh after he resigns. Palestinian sources claimed possible reasons for his resignation could be Fatah’s losses in the student council elections in Birzeit University, the PA’s economic crisis, and internal government disagreements, especially with the minister of the treasury. Possible replacements include Salam Fayyad, former PA prime minister and considered leading the race because of American pressure for his appointment. Another possibility is Muhammad Mustafa, a member of the PLO’s Executive Committee and chairman of the Palestinian Investment Fund, who was minister of the treasury in a former PA government. According to the sources, there are internal disagreements regarding suitable candidates, but the decision will be made by Hussein al-Sheikh and Majed Faraj (Ra’i al-Yawm, May 31, 2022).
- Hamas-affiliated websites reported that the Palestinian leadership asked Muhammad Shtayyeh to resign in the near future because of the failures of his government, the losses in the elections for the student council in Birzeit University and internal disagreements in the government, especially with the minister of the treasure (Quds, May 30, 2022).
- It was also claimed that Muhammad Shtayyeh currently had no intention of resigning and issued several press releases stating that [government] matters were being handled correctly. He also uploaded videos to his Facebook page about his government’s achievements in health and education. For example, according to one video, new hospitals were opened in Halhul, Dura and Ramallah, and according to another, 300 new classrooms were built 27 new kindergartens were opened (Muhammad Shtayyeh’s Facebook page, June 5 and 6, 2022).
- In the meantime, another Fatah loss was reported in the doctors’ union elections, where Fatah lost to representatives from independent slates in seven branches, winning only in the branch in Ramallah. Note: In the near future student council elections will be held in al-Najah University in Nablus.
Muhammad Shtayyeh continues slandering Israel to the EU
- On May 31, 2022, Muhammad Shtayyeh met with EU and UN delegations, and the EU representatives in the PA. He complained about UN and Security Council resolutions which were not being enforced and blamed the international community for not yet having found a solution for the Palestinians. Regarding the PA’s relations with Israel, he called them relations between “an occupier and an occupied country,” because Israel controlled all facets of life and all the Palestinians’ natural resources. He claimed Israel did not honor signed agreements and that was why peace talks with Israel failed (Wafa, May 31, 2022).
![Muhammad Shtayyeh meets with an EU delegation (Muhammad Shtayyeh's Facebook page, May 31, 2022).](https://www.terrorism-info.org.il/app/uploads/2022/06/word-image-1654686236888.jpeg)

Rumors about Mahmoud Abbas’ health

The reports, whose source was unclear, had a great impact. Sources in the PA were angry and rushed to deny the story. Hussein al-Sheikh said there was no truth to the reports and that Mahmoud Abbas was in good health and working as usual. He said the rumors had been spread to confuse and complicate the internal Palestinian situation (Hussein al-Sheikh’s Twitter account, June 4, 2022).
Campaign in Hebron to protest the cost of living
- Palestinian activists in Hebron renewed the “We want to live” campaign, which protests the high cost of living in the PA. As part of the campaign a convoy of trucks drove through the streets in Hebron and a protest tent was erected in the center of the city.

They threatened that if their demands were not met they would spread their protest to the rest of the PA (QudsN Twitter account, June 5 and 6, 2022). On June 6, 2022, according to reports the Palestinian security forces detained eight of the activists who had organized the protest in Hebron. They were released several hours later (Paldf Twitter account, June 6, 2022).
