Fatah calls on Hamas to relinquish power to avoid ‘end of Palestinians’ existence’
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah movement calls on its rivals, the Hamas terror group, to relinquish power in order to safeguard the “existence” of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
“Hamas must show compassion for Gaza, its children, women and men,” Fatah spokesman Monther al-Hayek says in a message sent to AFP from Gaza. He calls on Hamas to “step aside from governing and fully recognize that the battle ahead will lead to the end of Palestinians’ existence” if it remains in power in Gaza.
