DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. August 25, 2015, 11:02 AM (IDT)

After giving up on the Obama administration, Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas is busy seeking new champions, possibly in Tehran, while shoring up his rule over Palestinian institutions, designing his legacy, and bringing his son Yasser Abbas forward as his successor. Saeb Ereket is tagged to stand in as Palestinian Authority chairman for the interim. The PLO Executive Committee is to be reshuffled to replace Abbas' enemies with new and young faces, sons of the movement’s founders

Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
