Palestinian Authority Forms New Cabinet Amid Calls for Reform and Gaza Crisis

The new government, led by Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa, aims to address wartime economic devastation and facilitate Gaza's reconstruction.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas approved the formation of a new cabinet, aiming to reform the Palestinian Authority and address the Gaza crisis.
Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa, who also serves as foreign minister, emphasizes Gaza reconstruction and ceasefire as top priorities.
The cabinet, expected to take over Gaza post-Hamas, includes members from various backgrounds, with plans to address humanitarian needs and institutional reform.
International reactions are mixed, with some viewing the change as cosmetic, while others await the government's actions on key reforms.
Hamas has rejected the new government as illegitimate, calling for a power-sharing government ahead of national elections.
