PA, Hamas Agree to Form Committee to Run Post-War Gaza: Report

The Palestinian Authority and Hamas have signed a document agreeing to form a joint committee that would run the post-war Gaza Strip, Al-Araby Al-Jadeed Arab news site reported on Tuesday.

The report said it has a copy of the document that was signed to formulate the committee, to be made of 10-15 leading Palestinian figures.

It comes a day after Egypt’s foreign minister said that rival Palestinian groups Fatah and Hamas were in Cairo for talks seeking to bring post-war Gaza.

The talks are part of Egypt’s broader mediation efforts to broker a ceasefire between the Zionist entity and the Hamas resistance group and to expand humanitarian access to the enclave.

The document laid out six commitments largely designed to unite the West Bank and Gaza under one political entity.

They would be responsible for overseeing health and economic services, agriculture and vital infrastructure.

Meanwhile on Tuesday, Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar reported that an Israeli delegation is to visit Cairo in the coming days for talks on more details regarding a potential captive and ceasefire deal between Hamas and the Zionist entity.
