RAMALLAH, West Bank — Thousands of Palestinians in the West Bank city of Ramallah gathered during a central event organized by Palestinian factions Feb. 11 to condemn the US deal of the century and voice their support for President Mahmoud Abbas’ refusal of the deal.

The rally coincided with Abbas’ speech before the UN Security Council Feb. 11, during which he clarified the Palestinian stance against the deal of the century and outlined the alternative Palestinian vision.
