Where Hamas signs reconciliation deal with Mahmud Abbas president of the state of Palestine?

  • A. Tunis
  • B. Algiers
  • C. Casablanca
  • D. Cairo

Correct Answer: B. Algiers

Palestinian factions signed a reconciliation deal in Algiers, vowing to hold elections by next October in their latest attempt to end a rift that has now lasted more than 15 years. The deal was signed by a leading figure from the Fatah party of President Mahmud Abbas and by the chief of the Islamist movement Hamas, which rules Gaza. The two rival groups have been at odds for more than a decade. While Fatah dominates the internationally recognized Palestinian Authority (PA), which is based in the West Bank, Hamas is in control in the Gaza Strip
