Palestine’s ambassador to the UK has said that the Palestinian leadership needs to reassess its relationship with Israel and its allies and rethink its strategy following the failure of negotiations and the pursuit of international justice.

Husam Zomlot, a diplomat representing the Palestinian Authority (PA), made the comments during an interview on Middle East Eye’s “The Big Picture” podcast on Wednesday, just hours after Israel concluded a large-scale operation in Jenin that killed 12 people.

Zomlot said Palestinians needed to unite against one “common enemy”, the Israeli occupation, amid question marks over the legitimacy of the PA and its ability to protect the people it represents.
