Egypt postpones the inter-Palestinian dialogue between Fatah and Hamas until the end of Ramadan and Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations, Palestinian sources say.
The decision to postpone the latest Egyptian-mediated reconciliation talks, which were previously shifted from Aug. 7 to Aug. 25, was taken after Fatah Chief Mahmoud Abbas decided to call together the Palestinian National Council (PNC) in Ramallah on Aug. 26 for two days.
The PNC is to convene to elect new members of the Palestine Liberation Organization's (PLO) executive committee. Those elected will fill the seven vacant posts in the 18-member executive committee.
The 30-day fasting month of Ramadan, which began on Saturday, ends on Sept. 21, while Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations will last for three days. Thus the dialogue will resume after the Eid-ul-Fitr holidays, the source said.
