Al-Quds (
Al-Quds is the most widely read Palestinian daily.[2] In addition to paper circulation, the newspaper publishes its content online in PDF and HTML format. On 17 December 2008, the newspaper's website began publishing content in Persian.
The paper operates an office in Washington, D.C., with bureau chief Said Arikat reporting on U.S. foreign policy, specifically as it related to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.[3] In early 2023, the news website added a Hebrew and an English edition.[4]
Controversies
In the edition of 30 November 1997, the newspaper claimed that The Protocols of the Elders of Zion publication was not a hoax.[5]
Editorial stance
Al-Quds went against the traditional Palestinian boycott of Israeli elections in east Jerusalem by publishing full-page ads and endorsing mayoral candidate Arcadi Gaydamak in 2008.[6]
