Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Palestinian delegation in Cairo agrees to postpone talk of one of Hamas’s key demands for a long-term ceasefire with Israel, namely the construction of an airport and seaport in the Gaza Strip.
According to an Israel Radio report citing the London-based al-Hayat, Hamas says Cairo made it clear such conditions pertain to more comprehensive peace talks.
Israel has vehemently refused to consider the building of either a sea or air port in the Palestinian enclave.
