GAZA- Hamas leaders will hold talks in Cairo today on proposals to end the schism with Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah group by reshaping the way the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip is governed.
Egyptian mediators have proposed setting up a government of technocrats in the territory to prepare for early parliamentary and presidential elections and revamping, under Arab supervision, Gaza's security forces, Palestinian officials said.
