Friday 20-October-2017

A senior Hamas delegation led by Saleh al-Arouri Deputy Head of Hamas’s Political Bureau arrived on Friday in Iran’s capital city of Tehran.

The PIC reporter said that the Hamas leaders are going to meet with senior Iranian officials during their few days visit to the country.

The delegation will discuss the latest developments on the Palestinian arena especially the reconciliation file and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as well as bilateral relations.

Hamas’s visit to Tehran follows improvement of relations between the Movement and Iran after several years of cold relations as a result of the Syrian crisis. It is part of a series of contacts with Arab and Muslim countries in light of the current developments on the reconciliation issue.

Early August a high-level delegation of Hamas headed by political bureau member Ezzat al-Resheq arrived in Iran in response to an official invitation to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Iranian president Hassan Rouhani who was elected in May.
