Exiled Hamas leader in Syria
Khaled Meshaal on Friday called for dialogue with the rival Fatah movement after
days of infighting between the two groups in Gaza.
"What is needed now is to deal with the Palestinian split," Meshaal told a
press conference here, saying Hamas, or the Islamic Resistance Movement,
supported the Arab sponsorship of a dialogue in the Palestinian national
interest.
Meshaal made the remarks hours after an emergency meeting of the Arab foreign
ministers in Cairo on the escalation on the Palestinian
territories.
