Israel criticizes Palestinian President Abbas for 'interim government' with Hamas
Israel has strongly criticized Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas for agreeing to an 'interim government for reconciliation' with the rival Palestinian group Hamas, mediated by China. Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz accused Abbas of embracing Hamas, which Israel considers a terrorist organization.
The agreement, reached during a meeting in Beijing, aims to establish a national unity government that will exercise authority over both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. However, Israel and its close ally, the United States, reject Hamas's involvement in any post-war order for Gaza.
The situation is further complicated by Israel's ongoing military operations in the Gaza Strip. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has arrived in the United States for a visit, including meetings with President Joe Biden and a speech to Congress.
