Fatah calls on Palestinians to boycott Jerusalem municipal elections: "Don’t Judaize Jerusalem, Don’t give the occupation legitimacy"

The following five posters were published on Fatah's official Facebook page on Oct. 29, 2018, the day before Israel's munical elections took place. Residents of East Jerusalem who are not Israeli citizens can vote in the Jerusalem municipal elections. All the posters have a logo  in the upper right corner showing a ballot box which is crossed out. Text on the logo says: “Boycott the occupation’s municipal elections.”
