Yesterday, Thursday, the Palestinian factions held the first session of the Moscow meeting in the presence of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
Over many years, several meetings were held between Palestinian factions in order to end the division and restore national unity, the most recent of which was the meetings in Algiers in October 2022 and a meeting in the Egyptian city of El Alamein on July 30, 2023, without resulting in serious practical steps to achieve their goal.
The new talks come in the wake of a devastating war waged by Israel on the Gaza Strip since last October 7, which has left tens of thousands of civilians martyred and wounded, most of them children and women, in addition to an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe and massive destruction of infrastructure.
