Fatah kicked off the three-day Eighth General Conference in Ramallah on Thursday to elect a new central committee, its highest leadership body, for the first time in 10 years as it faces existential challenges in the wake of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza.

The elections had been held at a highly sensitive moment amid complex challenges and exceptional circumstances, Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Mustafa said as results were announced on Sunday.

A collection of writings by the imprisoned Palestinian political leader Marwan Barghouti will be published in November, bringing together prison letters, interviews, personal material and documents from the last three decades of Barghouti's political life and incarceration. As deadly attacks on Gaza continue despite a nominal ceasefire, the 66-year-old is seen by many as the best hope for a leader of any future Palestinian state.

Their own kids are really valuable to them but other people's kids are worthless, said Mohammed Sabry, his eyes swollen from a night of weeping.
