GAZA (Reuters) – Russian Foreign Minister
Sergei Lavrov met Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal in Qatar on Monday and
invited him to visit Moscow, a Hamas official said, extending a
diplomatic welcome to the Palestinian group shunned by the West.
Meshaal, who is based in Doha, last travelled to Moscow
in 2010, four years after his first official visit to the Russian
capital.
In a statement released in Gaza, the Hamas official said a
delegation led by Meshaal briefed Lavrov on conditions in the Gaza
Strip, which the Islamist movement rules, in the aftermath of last
summer’s war with Israel.
Meshaal also discussed with Lavrov “Zionist terrorism in
the West Bank and its assaults on Muslim and Christian sites in
Jerusalem”, the official said, three days after an arson attack by
suspected Jewish militants killed a Palestinian toddler.
