Fatah: Protests Against Occupation on Monday, Jan. 26

Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party called on all Palestinian Arabs to engage in protest activities and to boycott Israeli products, according to the Palestinian Arab newspaper, Maan.

The protests are intended to show support for the Palestinian Arab leaderships' efforts to place another statehood resolution before the United Nations Security Council.

In a statement referred to in the Maan account, Fatah specifically urged Palestinian Arabs to take parts in "resistance activities against the Israeli occupation this coming Monday, Jan. 26."

The protests will begin in the centers of Palestinian Arab districts beginning at 12:00 noon on Monday.
