The Gaza Strip may come under the control of a Palestinian state. This was stated by the President of the Palestinian National Authority Mahmoud Abbas, the WAFA agency reports, Kommersant provides excerpts.
He added that this is only possible within the framework of a comprehensive political solution that should regulate the situation in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
“We will fully fulfill our responsibilities within the framework of a comprehensive political solution that includes the entire West Bank, including East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip,” Abbas said, emphasizing that the Gaza Strip is an integral part of Palestine.
The day before, Abbas met with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who visited the West Bank of Jordan to meet with the head of Palestine, writes Reuters. According to media reports, the parties discussed the future of the Gaza Strip.
Let us recall that the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict began on October 7 after Hamas rocket attacks on Israeli territory and the capture of a number of settlements bordering the Gaza Strip. It was reported that more than 1,400 Israelis were killed, most of them civilians. Hamas militants also took a large number of hostages. According to Gaza’s health ministry, more than 9,000 people have been killed in the strip since Israeli bombing began. According to WHO, 40% of the dead were children. Currently, the Gaza Strip is blocked – there is no electricity, no Internet, and the supply of heat and water has been interrupted.
