Nasrallah and Hamas Delegation Tackle Latest Developments
Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah held a meeting with a delegation from Hamas headed by Deputy Hamas Politburo Chief Mousa Abu Marzouk, As Safir newspaper reported on Wednesday.
The delegations tackled the latest developments in Syria, Gaza and the situation in the Arab world, in addition to the ties between Hizbullah, Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood.
The gatherers agreed with Nasrallah during the meeting that took place on Monday on formulating a plan “to resolve the developments in Syria and the relations with the Muslim Brotherhood amid the developments in the Arab World,” sources told the daily.
Concerning the developments in Syria, the source said that both sides had similar opinions as “the military option will not resolve the crisis and there would be no alternative other than implementing the political reforms.”
Nasrallah, according to the daily, informed the delegation that the Syrian leadership is keen to suggest practical solutions and to “open up” to the national opposition if it was ready to solve the crisis politically without relying foreign countries.
The two also agreed on cooperating to find the “right channels to improve Iran’s ties with the Arab countries which would be based on trust, especially with the Muslim Brotherhood,” the sources noted.
On the escalating situation in Gaza, both sides stressed that “the Israeli enemy bears full responsibility… the situation aims at putting more pressure on the resistance… This forces preparations for any new war staged by Israel.”
The violence in Gaza kicked off on March 9 with Israel's assassination of the head of the radical Popular Resistance Committees (PRC).
The strike prompted militants to fire hundreds of rockets and mortar rounds into southern Israel, wounding people and prompting the closure of schools within firing range of Gaza.
Israel responded with dozens of air strikes. Palestinian medics put the total death toll late on Monday at 25, with more than 80 injured.
Hizbullah and Hamas also tackled the preparations for a rally organized by pro-Syrian Lebanese parties and Palestinian factions in areas bordering Israel on March 30 on Earth Day.
