The highest Palestinian political council has called on militants to halt attacks against Israel, saying they harm the national cause.

The central committee of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation, which represents Palestinians both in the occupied territories and in refugee camps abroad, called on militant groups to "stop all the military action that might harm our national goals and give the Israelis an excuse to obstruct Palestinian stability".

Good luck. Thanks for the lip service.
