Palestinian minister rejects threat over death of activist | New Israel-Palestine Conflict Nasri Abu Jaish said Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh twice refused to accept his resignation and led him to remain in government. The Palestinian Authority labor minister said in a statement on Sunday that he would resign in the wake of protests over the death of an arrested activist. Nasri Abu Jaish, also a representative of the ruling left-wing People’s Party, said he would leave the Fatah-led PA in late June “for lack of respect for the law and public liberties”. Abu Jaish announced that he was awaiting his resignation as protesters called for the resignation of President Mahmoud Abbas, following the violent arrest and death of activist Nizar Banat.
