PA rejects Israel's decision to cut prisoners, martyrs' salaries
(MENAFN) Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas reiterated at a meeting of his Fatah Party's Central committee the Palestinian rejection to the Israeli decision of cutting the PA fund, or allowances the PA pays to the families of the prisoners and martyrs.
"We are still waiting and we will take the proper measures that fit with our interests," Abbas said. "Those are our prisoners and martyrs, and we have been paying them their allowances since 1965."
Talking about moving up the stalled file of reconciliation with rival Islamic Hamas movement, which has been controlling the Gaza Strip since 2007, Abbas said that there are talks that Egypt is holding with Hamas movement "in this respect."
"We told Egypt that if Hamas really wants to make reconciliation, it should transfer all power in the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian consensus government, and if not, they should bear the full responsibility of Gaza," said Abbas.
