President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority (PA) has appointed Mohammad Mustafa as the new Prime Minister.
Mustafa, a U.S.-educated economist, is one of the leading Palestinian business figures with a track record of overseeing Gaza’s reconstruction efforts under Hamas’ rule.
As the new Prime Minister, Mustafa will need to navigate the complex political landscape and work towards uniting the Palestinian territories, while also addressing the pressing humanitarian crisis in Gaza and reviving the stalled peace process with Israel.
