๐Ÿ“… 15 May 1920 ๐Ÿ“ Palestine

Organizations/movement: Palestinian associations and clubs. Action: Organizers sought to convene a further national congress during British military administration; Palestinian clubs also addressed the Syrian Congress presidency. Result: The scheduled gathering did not take place. The interruption helps explain the numbering of the later Third Congress. Impact / interpretation: Restrictions on assembly constrained the development of national representation. Organizers continued communicating through petitions and regional links rather than simply abandoning political activity.
