a decommissioned prison camp on pump and you get his man assignment to evict refugees about four hundred of them had refused to leave this form a straining run facility which was closed last month. that in palestinian political factions including hamas and fatah have agreed they need to hold elections by the end of next year but leaders made that joint statement following reconciliation talks in cairo of course what malcolm webb is following developments from gaza. palestine's two main political parties flatter and hamas along with twelve other palestinian factions came out with a statement after two eleven hour days of talks in cairo brokered by egypt they've agreed to hold elections before the end of next year for all positions in the palestinian authority including the presidency and all positions below that the date for the elections will be set later by president palestinian president mahmoud abbas they've agreed that in just over
3:17 am
a week the palestinian authority will take over ministration of gaza from hamas amasses been in control here for the last ten years since they fought with fatah and pushed them out. due to take over very soon both sides all sides agreed to friel political prisoners those held here in gaza and in the west bank and they agreed to reform the palestinian liberation organization which is the organization that represents palestine internationally it will be reformed to include representatives from hamas and from some of the other factions and to adjust its mission and mandate accordingly all sides agreed that senior government officials from egypt will come here within the next few days to monitor these terms that have been development sort of what's been agreed upon but no date was set for the permanent reopening of the rafa crossing for most people in gaza that's the only way in or out it's a border crossing with egypt has been closed to most of the last ten years reopened
3:18 am
temporarily for a few days earlier this week but no date has been set for its permanent reopening. sorry spoke to palestinian american a political analyst a researcher mohamad away so who is disappointed about this latest deal. it's much about nothing with what they said now i think they have failed to achieve anything that helps the palestinian people whether in the west bank or gaza and i think this is between the top guys the big guys and everybody is trying to get the other side to surrender to the other i think it's a says sad day in the in the in the palestinian people's life and history that they do not agree even on opening the borders and negotiate an opening of the borders for the two million people in gaza from what i know i think the egyptians are much worse than the israelis now and keeping that blockade against the palestinians in order to bring down and bring
3:19 am
a solution to their issues with hamas with targeting hamas and the palestinian people they are still refusing to open their borders they want to have control of the gaza strip like they did before nine hundred sixty seven war when are the not turned over the gaza strip to the israelis so what from what i see i think we are still not in the even square one we are still outside the possibility of reaching anything that can help the palestinian cause and let's keep in mind the americans and the europeans will refuse and they it is on their books they will not deal with any government that hamas is part of it so what kind of elections are we going to have and what are we going to do when there are elections and hamas is part of it russia's president vladimir putin has told his turkish and iranian counterparts there is a real chance of ending the war in syria speaking at three way talks putin said he believes a new stage of been reached in the conflict for

a challenge reports are from the black sea resort of sochi. the war in syria is nearly over the three presidents meeting in sochi now it's time to rebuild the shattered country of lady may putin thinks a plan he's been pushing for weeks now is gaining momentum to do it. i am satisfied by the fact that the presidents of iran and turkey have supported an initiative to hold an all syrian forum a congress of national dialogue in syria the kremlin driven initiative aims to bring a broad spectrum of syrian government opposition and civil society groups to sochi in early december to plan for the country's future. and join me in calling we have all talked about oppositions all three countries have spoken in favor of convening this congress of national dialogue. but the president has been telling
3:21 am
putin he won't accept kurdish groups linked to the p.k. k. being there and turkey's president still seems lukewarm on the idea. of them. let me agree with president putin and he said we need to build on the momentum achieved as we talked together with mr rouhani we agreed that we need to extend our ties in all the areas. even less enthusiastic is the syrian opposition group the h n c which says it refuses to discuss the future of syria outside of the un's geneva framework at an opposition conference beginning in the saudi capital riyadh early indications are that groups will keep their insistence asaad must go despite pressure to compromise with his plan for a congress of national dialogue russia seems keen to shake the political future of syria much like it's already shapes the conflict if putin successful this will be to the benefits of his ally. and yet again the dreams of the opposition will suffer
