+ Briefly:
+ Palestine ends DST earlier than predicted, on 2020-10-24.
+
+ Changes to past and future timestamps
+
+ Palestine ends DST on 2020-10-24 at 01:00, instead of 2020-10-31
+ as previously predicted (thanks to Sharef Mustafa.) Its
+ 2019-10-26 fall-back was at 00:00, not 01:00 (thanks to Steffen
+ Thorsen.) Its 2015-10-23 transition was at 01:00 not 00:00, and
+ its spring 2020 transition was on March 28 at 00:00, not March 27
+ (thanks to Pierre Cashon.) This affects Asia/Gaza and
+ Asia/Hebron. Assume future spring and fall transitions will be on
+ the Saturday preceding the last Sunday of March and October,
+ respectively.
