Palestinian officials deny Abbas planning to resign

Palestinian officials on Thursday denied that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was planning to resign or dismantle the PA.
The denial came in response to unconfirmed reports published in a number of Arab media outlets that claimed that Abbas was about to make a "surprise announcement" in the coming days.
Ghassan Shaka'ah, member of the PLO Executive Committee, described the reports as "unfounded rumors."
