Hamas delegation leaves Gaza to Egypt for talks

GAZA CITY (Ma’an) — A high-profile Hamas delegation left the Gaza Strip to
Cairo on Saturday, where they plan to meet with Egyptian officials, Gaza
security sources said.

Sources who preferred to remain anonymous for security reasons told Ma’an
that the delegation included senior Hamas leaders Mahmoud al-Zahar, Imad
al-Alami, and Khalil al-Hayyah.

They will be joined by exiled Hamas leader Mousa Abu Marzouq who reportedly
arrived in Cairo on Friday night following an invitation from Egyptian
general intelligence.

The invitation came after Hamas denied Egyptian accusations of involvement
in the murder of Egyptian Attorney-General Hisham Barakat.

The Hamas officials will submit reports in defense against the Egyptian
minister of interior’s accusation concerning the June 2015 car bombing that
killed Barakat.

Hamas has suffered poor relations with the Egyptian government ever since
the democratically-elected Muslim Brotherhood, with whom they were closely
allied, was thrown out of power in Egypt in July 2013.

The Egyptian government has in the past accused Hamas of assisting the
insurgency that has spread throughout the Sinai Peninsula, although Hamas
strongly denies the allegations.
