The Palestinian Arab Party (Arabic: الحزب العربي الفلسطيني ‘Al-Hizb al-'Arabi al-Filastini) was a political party in Palestine established in May 1935 by the influential Husayni family.
Emil Ghuri was elected general secretary until the end of the British Mandate in 1948.
Other leaders of the party included Saed al-dean Al-Aref, Rafiq al-Tamimi, Tawfiq al-Husayni, Anwar al-Khatib, Kamil al-Dajani, and Yusuf Sahyun.
The objectives of the party were independence for Palestine, an end of the Mandate, the preservation of the Arab majority in the country, opposition to Zionism, and closer relations between Palestine and other Arab countries.
