Palestinian Authority Faces Uprising After Critic Dies In Custody

Protests have erupted in the West Bank against the Palestinian Authority (PA) following the death of a critic in police custody. The PA has launched an investigation, but the critic's family demands an international probe. Tensions have risen as the PA, led by Mahmoud Abbas, postponed elections fearing a loss to Hamas, which has gained popularity since the Gaza war. The PA is criticized for authoritarianism and lack of oversight. While the US and Israel prefer the PA over Hamas, considered a terrorist group, the region's stability is increasingly uncertain.
