According to a report in Haaretz, a delegation of Palestinian Authority officials is slated to head to Cairo in the coming days in order to discuss with Egypt its role in the future of the Gaza Strip.
The newspaper cites a senior PA official saying that the channel between Egypt and the PA was opened after Cairo proposed a three-stage plan for ending the war that would include an Egypt-sponsored “Palestinian national talk” aimed at ending the division between Fatah and Hamas.
According to the report, PA intelligence chief Majed Faraj has already departed for Cairo to discuss altering the terms of the Egyptian proposal.
