Hamas said it has accepted \u2018key\u2019 reconciliation conditions offered by rival Fatah party\u2019s head Mahmoud Abbas, including nationwide elections in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

\n\tIn a statement issued on Sunday, the Palestinian resistance movement underlined its \u2018desire to achieve national unity\u2019 after a 10-year rift that has left Palestinians divided between two governments, presstv.ir reported.<\/p>\n

\n\tHamas has been running the Gaza Strip since 2006 when it scored a landslide victory in Palestinian parliamentary elections, leaving Abbas in control only of the autonomous areas of the West Bank.<\/p>\n

\n\tHamas said it had dissolved an administrative committee that runs Gaza, invited the Palestinian Authority led by Abbas to return to Gaza and was ready to hold new elections.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe statement followed negotiations held last week in Cairo between the movement\u2019s officials and a delegation sent by Abbas.<\/p>\n

\n\tHamas has fought off three Israeli wars on Gaza and been managing the coastal enclave’s affairs in the face of a crippling Israeli siege.<\/p>\n

\n\tAbbas’s government has compounded the misery of the Gazans through \u201cpunitive measures\u201d which it has imposed to squeeze Hamas and force it to relinquish the control of the enclave.<\/p>\n

\n\tAmong a series of economic sanctions has been the reduction of payments for Gaza electricity, which has prompted Israel to drastically cut power supply to the territory of 1.8 million residents to less than four hours a day.<\/p>\n

\n\tLast month, Abbas threatened to gradually cut financial support to the impoverished strip \u201cby 100 percent\u201d until Hamas agreed to reconcile with Fatah. The overall deprivations are estimated to render Gaza uninhabitable by 2020.<\/p>\n

\n\tHamas has shunned contacts with Israel, while the Palestinian Authority maintains security coordination with Tel Aviv.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe coordination and whether Hamas would subject its security forces to the Palestinian Authority command have persistently thrown off the prospect of reconciliation between the Palestinian factions.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Sunday statement stopped short at offering information about either issue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
