Hamas and Fatah sign new unity deal
PALESTINE’S Fatah and Hamas parties signed a deal in Cairo yesterday to bring the occupied West Bank and besieged Gaza Strip under one authority.
The breakthrough in unity after 10 years of schism came after two days of talks in the Egyptian capital.
That was preceded by months of diplomacy culminating last week in the first Palestinian cabinet meeting to be held in Gaza for three years.
