Palestine’s President Mahmoud Abbas welcomed on Wednesday the humanitarian deal between Hamas rivals and Israel in the Gaza Strip.

He called for wider solutions to the long-running Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Abbas’ administration said it appreciates “the Qatari-Egyptian (mediation) effort”.

It also wants an extended truce with Israel and “the implementation of a political solution based on international legitimacy,” a social media post by senior Palestinian aide Hussein Al-Sheikh said.
