Representatives from the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and the Palestinian National Liberation Movement (Fatah) agreed in Cairo, Egypt, on Wednesday to form a "temporary, non-political committee" to manage life services concerning the Gaza Strip, according to an Egyptian source.
The committee proposed during talks between the two Palestinian factions will include 10 to 15 members not affiliated with either faction, with their nomination pending further discussion, the source said.
Delegates from both factions arrived in Cairo on Tuesday to negotiate the administration of Gaza. The talks, under Egyptian sponsorship, aim to bridge differences between the two sides.
According to a report from Egypt's state-run Al-Ahram newspaper, representatives from both sides continue talks in Cairo on Thursday.
