Rosh Hashana was celebrated on Monday and Tuesday.

According to the PA’s official WAFA news agency, the two “exchanged views on the latest developments in the Palestinian-Israeli relationship,” and “expressed their hope to achieve peace between Palestinians and Israelis as soon as possible.”

Rivlin’s office did not comment on the conversation.

Israeli leaders have previously called Abbas to congratulate him on the occasion of Muslim holidays.
