Palestinians in the West Bank and central Gaza voted Saturday in municipal elections, the first since the war in Gaza erupted, with low turnout and a limited political field. Nearly 1.5 million people are registered to vote in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, as well as 70,000 people in Gaza's Deir el-Balah area, according to the Ramallah-based Central Elections Commission.
