Member of Fatah’s central committee Azzam al-Ahmed said the failed attempt to assassinate senior Hamas official Tawfiq Abu Naim in Gaza was aimed at “reshuffling the cards in the Palestinian arena stirring up chaos and tension and disrupting the reconciliation.”
Azzam made his remarks during a recent phone call with head of Hamas’s political bureau Ismail Haneyya according to the Ramallah-based Voice of Palestine Radio.
The Fatah official stressed during his conversation with Haneyya “the need for all parties to be vigilant at this delicate stage and not to give a chance for malicious hands to sabotage the efforts to end the division.”
