Palestinian political coalition The Unified National Leadership of the Uprising ( UNLU ; Arabic : القيادة الوطنية الموحدة , romanized : al-Qiyada al-Muwhhada ) was a coalition of local Palestinian leadership during the First Intifada .By the late 1980s, the central Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) leadership had largely been exiled, imprisoned, or killed by Israeli forces.As a result, when the First Intifada broke out as spontaneous mass demonstrations in 1987, the PLO leadership was caught by surprise, and could only indirectly influence the events.In its place, the UNLU emerged as a new local leadership, mobilising many grassroots Palestinian groups, including women's committees, labour unions, and student unions, the Palestine Communist Party , as well as local branches of PLO factions, notably of Fatah , the PFLP , and the DFLP .The UNLU played the leading role in organising the uprising, and was the focus of the social cohesion that sustained the persistent disturbances.
