Jihad Abdo is a co-founder of the The Coalition of Civilized Demand for Fair Palestinian Telecom Sector (Bekfi ya shrikat alitisalat - Enough Communication Companies), a movement which was established to demand fair competition in the Telecom sector in Palestine and to defend the economic rights of Palestinians. The movement advocates against the continuous rise in telecommunication costs and Paltel Telecommunications Group’s monopoly over the industry in Palestine. He regularly participates in organising peaceful demonstrations calling for an end to corruption within the Palestinian Authority and the Palestinian telecom sector. On 3 June 2020, the Public Prosecutor summoned Mr Jihad Abdo together with other members of the Coalition Mr Ezz El-Din Zaalol, and Mr Mousa Al-qaisa, and charged them with ‘defamation and insulting’ the telecommunication company. Members of The Coalition of Civilized Demand for Fair Palestinian Telecom Sector have allegedly been frequently harassed by the Palestinian authorities. They have been summoned for investigation many times, and several members have in the past been placed under preventive detention.
