| Description | Jailed Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti has withdrawn from next month's Palestinian elections.
The surprise move, announced by an aide, comes 10 days after he declared himself a candidate to succeed the late Yasser Arafat as Palestinian leader.
Mr Barghouti is serving five life terms imposed by an Israeli court in June for the killing of four Israelis and a Greek monk.
The Israelis had said they would not release him if he were elected. |
