New Palestinian prime minister offers resignation: official
Reuters

RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah has offered his resignation to President Mahmoud Abbas just two weeks after taking office, an official in his press office told Reuters on Thursday.

The government source told Reuters that Hamdallah made the abrupt, unexpected move because of a "dispute over his powers".

Hamdallah's cabinet consists overwhelmingly of members of the Fatah party led by Abbas, and political commentators immediately questioned how much room he would have to maneuver.
