哈马斯领导人宣布与法塔赫达成政治和解

The Palestinian Hamas faction says it has reached a deal with its rival Fatah over its political reconciliation.

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh issued a statement Thursday saying the two sides had struck an agreement after two days of talks in Cairo, under what he called Egypt's "generous" sponsorship. Haniyeh said details of the agreement would be announced later in the day in the Egyptian capital.

A Fatah spokesman confirmed the announcement in an interview with the French News Agency ((Agence France Presse)).

The agreement follows last month's decision by the militant Hamas faction to allow Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah movement to reassume control of Gaza. Hamas has governed the strip and its two million residents since 2007, when it fought a short civil war with Fatah. The two sides agreed to form a unity government in 2017, but Hamas has continued to oversee Gaza with its administrative body.

Israel has blockaded Gaza for a decade, and its border with Egypt has also remained largely closed in recent years, leaving Gaza's economy in shambles.

巴勒斯坦的哈马斯派系说，它同对立派系法塔赫达成了政治和解的协议。

哈马斯领导人哈尼亚星期四发表声明说，在埃及的热心撮合下，双方在开罗会谈两天后达成协议。哈尼亚说，协议细节星期四晚些时候将在埃及首都开罗公布。

法塔赫发言人在接受法新社采访时证实了哈马斯的宣布。

激进的哈马斯派系上个月决定，允许巴勒斯坦权力机构主席阿巴斯的法塔赫收回加沙的控制权。哈马斯2007年与法塔赫短暂开战，自那以来一直控制着加沙及其200万居民。双方2017年同意组建一个团结政府，但是哈马斯一直通过其行政机构管理加沙。

以色列10年来一直封锁加沙。近年来，加沙与埃及的边界也一直基本处于关闭状态，使加沙的经济百孔千疮。
