Hamas will decide on extending truce after consulting other factions
By JPOST.COM STAFF
Hamas will decide whether to extend the Gaza cease-fire after consulting with all the Palestinian factions, one of the group's spokesmen, Fawzi Barhoum, was quoted as saying Friday.
Barhoum told the Palestinian Al-Ayyam newspaper that Hamas had not yet been asked to lengthen the six-month truce, which is set to expire in December.
The group has said that it will only agree to extending the cease-fire if it is expanded to include the West Bank, and if the Rafah border crossing and the Israel-Gaza terminals are opened.
