Palestinian National Authority
Interim government in Western Asia
The Palestinian National Authority is the Fatah-controlled, interim self-government body that exercises partial civil control over the Gaza Strip and West Bank areas "A" and "B", established as a consequence of the 1993–1995 Oslo Accords. Following elections in 2006 and the subsequent Gaza conflict between the Fatah and Hamas parties, its authority had extended only in areas A and B of the West Bank. Since January 2013, it has used the name "State of Palestine" on official documents.
