拉马拉，10月10日 - 巴勒斯坦总统马哈茂德·阿巴斯周六因巴勒斯坦领土内部局势恶化，取消了原定于11月举行的立法选举，并将总统选举和立法选举的日期定为2027年9月11日，巴勒斯坦官方通讯社WAFA报道。
RAMALLAH, Oct 10 - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Saturday cancelled legislative elections scheduled for November due to worsening conditions within the Palestinian territories and set a date of September 11, 2027 for both presidential and legislative elections, the official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.
阿巴斯的法令指出，以色列的措施给11月举行选举带来了障碍，需要建立适宜的政治、安全和实际条件，以实现“自由、公平和包容”的选举。法令呼吁耶路撒冷、约旦河西岸和加沙地带的巴勒斯坦人参与投票。
Abbas' decree cited "obstacles posed by Israeli measures" to holding elections in November and the need to establish suitable political, security and on-the-ground conditions for "free, fair and inclusive elections". It called on Palestinians in Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza to participate in the polls.
人们一直对巴勒斯坦权力机构的选举能否在11月下旬如期进行持严重怀疑态度。自2005-06年后，巴勒斯坦就未举行过立法或总统选举。此后，巴勒斯坦总统马哈茂德·阿巴斯的对手——伊斯兰组织哈马斯夺取了加沙的控制权，驱逐了他的忠诚支持者。
There had been serious doubts that the Palestinian Authority vote would go ahead in late November. The Palestinians have not held legislative or presidential elections since 2005-06, after which Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' rival, the Islamist group Hamas, seized control of Gaza, ousting his loyalists.
该法令称，以色列的军事袭击、定居点扩张、定居者暴力以及约旦河西岸（包括东耶路撒冷）的行动限制，加上以色列继续扣留巴勒斯坦税收收入，为原定日期的选举筹备和举行制造了挑战。
The decree said Israeli military attacks, settlement expansion, settler violence and movement restrictions in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, along with Israel's continued withholding of Palestinian tax revenues, created challenges to preparing for and holding elections on the previous date.
在加沙地带，法令指出存在“特殊的安全和人道主义状况”，以色列军队未完全撤出，重建进展滞后，未能落实部署国际稳定部队和警察的安排。
In Gaza, the decree pointed to "exceptional security and humanitarian conditions", the incomplete withdrawal of Israeli forces, the lack of progress in reconstruction and the failure to implement arrangements for deploying international stabilisation forces and police.
该法令还称，以色列对选举委员会人员和国际观察员进入加沙和东耶路撒冷的限制也使选举筹备工作复杂化。
Israeli restrictions on access for election commission staff and international observers to Gaza and East Jerusalem also complicated preparations, the decree said.
推迟的决定是在巴勒斯坦解放组织执行委员会通过决议并与巴勒斯坦各派别和政治力量进行磋商之后作出的。该决定还旨在争取时间，以便开展全面的巴勒斯坦民族对话，以增强团结并应对选举进程面临的挑战。
The decision to postpone followed a resolution by the Palestine Liberation Organisation's executive committee and consultations with Palestinian factions and political forces. It also aimed to allow time for a comprehensive Palestinian national dialogue to strengthen unity and address challenges facing the electoral process.
