RAMALLAH/GAZA - Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, announced on Saturday night that the Palestinian Constitutional Court decided to dissolve the Palestinian Authority parliament, better known as the Palestinian Legislative Council.

Islamic Hamas movement opposed the decision, saying it will deepen the internal Palestinian division.

Abbas made the announcement in a speech addressed before a meeting for the Palestinian leadership, including Palestine Liberation Organization (also known as PLO) Executive Committee and his Fatah Party's Central Committee.
