CAIRO – 13 October 2017: Following the signing of the historic reconciliation agreement with Hamas, a Fatah movement high-level delegation left for home on Friday.

Under Egyptian auspices, Palestine’s two main political rivals, Fatah and Hamas, signed a reconciliation accord Thursday in Cairo, which denotes that the Concession Government will have administration over the Rafah border before December 1.

Egypt, which hosted a series of meetings over the past two days between both parties, invited the Palestinian factions that signed the 2011 accord to hold their upcoming meeting on November 21, 2017, in Cairo, the statement said.
