Haniya calls for national government, praising Egypt's role in supporting Palestinians on 31st anniversary - Daily News Egypt
Ismail Haniya, Hamas’ movement leader, called for forming a national unity government of all Palestinian factions, expressing his willingness to meet the Palestinian Authority’s President Mahmoud Abbas, and for concluding the Palestinian reconciliation with the Fatah faction. During his speech on Sunday to mark the 31st anniversary of the movement’s founding, Haniya expressed his appreciation for the support of Egypt, Qatar, Iran, and Kuwait for the Palestinian people. Hamas was founded in 1987 after the beginning of the first intifada “The Palestinian Uprising”, which broke out against the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the West Bank. The movement seized power of Gaza in 2007, after winning the elections. Earlier last week, The UN’s general assembly rejected a draft resolution proposed by the US, condemning the Palestinian Hamas movement for firing rockets at Israel.
