The deputy head of Hamas's political bureau in Syria, Moussa Abu Marzouk, told The Associated Press the delegation coming to Egypt is headed by bureau members Imad al-Alami and Mohammad Nasr.
He said the delegation would discuss a halt to the Israeli "aggression," an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, opening the border crossings and lifting the blockade, adding that an Egyptian proposal for a reconciliation with its rival Fatah would also be brought up.
Egypt's official news agency confirmed a Hamas delegation was coming to Cairo but didn't give details.
