The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) is working to add the state of Palestine to country lists on internet websites and domains, a Palestinian official said Thursday.
The move is to "embody" the United Nation's acceptance of Palestine as a non-member observer state through its General Assembly in November 2012, said Suliman Al-Zuhiri of the Telecom Ministry.
