The marches, reportedly organized by Hamas and Islamic Jihad, condemned rival West Bank-based Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s “political failure” for returning to the negotiating table with Israel.
Protesters commenced marching from various mosques across the enclave toward a square in central Gaza City, according to AFP.
