Why a call to Palestine fails
The 0 is still in the number
The 0 at the start of a Palestinian number is for calls inside Palestine. From abroad, leave it out: +970 takes its place.
The exit code is wrong for your country
00 works from Palestine, Europe, and most of the world. From the US and Canada the exit code is 011.
The number does not take calls from abroad
Numbers that start with 1700 or 1800, for shared-cost or toll-free lines, often cannot be reached from outside Palestine.
