The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) decided to submit an official request to the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate illegal Israeli settlement activity in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, PLO Executive Committee member Hanan Ashrawi told Ma’an on Monday.
The US government on Tuesday rejected a call from some Congressmen to close the Washington office of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), citing the PLO is an "important partner" to advance the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
