Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' ruling Fatah party has called for a general strike to protest President Donald Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

Tuesday's strike comes on the final day of Vice President Mike Pence's visit to the region, which the Palestinians have been boycotting. It includes shops, public transportation, banks and most of the public sector aside from schools and hospitals.

Fatah official Jamal Muhiesin told the Voice of Palestine that it marks "the beginning of our popular peaceful struggle" against the Jerusalem move.

Pence's first visit to the region as vice president has included stops in Egypt and Jordan. He has been welcomed very warmly in Israel and snubbed by the Palestinians.

However, he says that if allies won't join the effort, President Donald Trump "has made clear" the U.S. will leave the nuclear deal.
