Top Sunni scholar arrives in Gaza; PA furious
One of the most prominent Sunni theologians, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, arrived at the Gaza Strip for a three-day visit and was welcomed by Ismail Haniyeh in an official Hamas reception.
Al-Qaradawi's visit has enraged the Palestinian Authority's leadership who claim it hurts the PLO's standing as the official representative of the Palestinian people. As a sign of protests, the PLO and other Palestinian factions boycotted the reception. (Elior Levy)
