Hamas said it has noted the presidential decree calling for simultaneous presidential and legislative elections in September 2027, issued following a decision by the Palestine Liberation Organization's executive committee. The decree came after cancellation of a previous order that had set earlier election dates.
Hamas stated that postponing elections should lead to comprehensive national dialogue, according to Shehab Wire. The movement's position ties electoral scheduling to broader Palestinian political reconciliation efforts.
