Hamas has agreed to participate in the upcoming Palestinian legislative elections scheduled for November 28. This follows legal amendments that increased the number of seats to 200, lowered the eligibility age for candidacy, and increased women's quotas. This participation comes amid the movement’s desire to strengthen its presence within the Palestinian political system and to curb the monopoly on national decision-making. Hamas aims to form a broad coalition list that includes factions such as Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front, and the Democratic Front, along with independent figures and emerging forces. The move is seen as a response to political challenges and a step towards ending Fatah’s dominance under President Mahmoud Abbas. However, the international and Israeli stances remain unclear, and some parties are working to exclude Hamas. Despite logistical and security obstacles, Hamas considers this an opportunity to renew the political system and bolster its legitimacy, while being mindful that internal disagreements could deepen divisions if consensus is not reached. The crisis persists amid the absence of full national accord and ongoing international and regional pressures.
