China will host Palestinian unity talks between resistance group Hamas and political party Fatah, a Beijing-based diplomat said, a notable Chinese foray into Palestinian diplomacy amid Israel’s war on besieged Gaza that experts say has already assumed genocidal proportions. A Fatah official told the Reuters news agency on Friday that a delegation led by the group’s senior official, Azzam Al Ahmed, had left for China. A Hamas official said the faction’s team for the talks, led by senior official Moussa Abu Marzouk, would be flying there as well.
