Palestinian factions commend Egypt's efforts in the Gaza agreement and thank President Sisi

Palestinian factions expressed their gratitude to President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi for his significant efforts in supporting the Palestinian cause.

This came in a statement issued by the factions following a meeting held in Cairo. They affirmed their support for the mediators' efforts to form the Palestinian National Transitional Committee to administer the Gaza Strip. They emphasized the need to create a suitable environment for the committee to immediately assume all responsibilities in the Gaza Strip, managing essential services and daily life, in cooperation with the Peace Council and its international executive committee, which will oversee the acceptance and implementation of reconstruction efforts in the Strip.

They called for continued efforts to unify Palestinian visions and positions to overcome the current critical phase and move forward towards a unified Palestinian political system and independent national decision-making in defense of the rights of the Palestinian people. They also stressed the importance of confronting annexation plans in the West Bank, settlement expansion, and violations against religious sites in Jerusalem, while reiterating the necessity of establishing an independent Palestinian state.
