Fatah and Hamas meet in China to plan Gaza’s post-war future – NYT
China will receive representatives of Fatah and Hamas next week for talks on the events in Gaza, once the war between Israel and Hamas ends. New York Times was reported on Monday.
At a meeting in Beijing in April, attempts were made to bridge the gap between the two groups. New York Times The demand is seen by many as a key component for the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, but the meeting remained inconclusive.
At the end of June, Dr. Jamal Nazzal, Fatah spokesman in Europe and member of the Revolutionary Council, appeared on the Fatah-affiliated channel Awda TV and sharply accused Hamas of sacrificing Palestinian lives without the consent of the civilian population.
Fatah’s criticism of Hamas
“We consider them martyrs, but they did not sacrifice themselves – they were sacrificed,” Nazzal said. “The people who are cheering this – especially from abroad – have not tried to live in Gaza.”
Citing the Oslo II Accords of 1995, Nazzal also accused Hamas of sabotaging attempts to establish a Palestinian state.
“To thwart this process, Hamas carried out bombings in Israel,” Nazzal said. “If this process had been allowed to take its course, it would have given the Palestinians true independence and a fully sovereign state.”
In March, in response to Hamas’ criticism of Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa, Fatah accused Hamas of being “responsible for the return of the occupation to the Gaza Strip and for causing the Nakba (catastrophe) in which our Palestinian people live…”, which JerusalemPost reported.
Fatah sharply criticized Hamas, asking: “Did Hamas consult the Palestinian leadership or any Palestinian national party when it made its decision to carry out the October 7 ‘adventure’, which resulted in a catastrophe even more terrible and cruel than the Nakba of 1948?
“And has Hamas consulted the Palestinian leadership, which is now negotiating with Israel and offering it one concession after another, with no other goal than to obtain guarantees for the personal security of its leadership and to try to reach an agreement with (Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu in order to maintain its divisive role in Gaza and at the Palestinian level?”
