| Summary: | For his part, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Friday said that the ongoing Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip is a " massacre" and aims at obstructing the Palestinian bid to the United Nations for recognition. "Israel has plans to undermine the national Palestinian project, " Abbas said, adding "all what Israel does is to obstruct the Palestinian bid to the UN, but despite all these plans, we will go to the UN on Nov. 29." Egyptian Prime Minister Hisham Qandil arrived in Gaza Friday morning, and paid a visit to the Hamas cabinet headquarters, saying his country will spare no efforts to end the Israeli " aggression" on the Gaza Strip and to restore a continuous ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian militant groups. |
