UN chief to 'carefully study' Palestinian unity deal

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has noted "with interest" a new unity deal between the Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah but is waiting for details of the accord, his spokesman said.

 

"With respect to Palestinian unity, the secretary general noted with interest the understanding reached between Fatah and Hamas as announced in Cairo," said UN spokesman Martin Nesirky yesterday. Ban "indicated that the United Nations would study the agreement carefully once the details were available" and took note of Israel's concerns, the spokesman added. (AFP)
