GAZA, Oct. 2 -- Rami Hamdallah, Prime Minister of the Palestinian Consensus Government announced on Monday that his government began its work in the Gaza Strip in accordance to the Egyptian-brokered reconciliation understandings aimed at ending 10 years of internal divisions.
Hamdallah and a delegation of 120 figures, including cabinet ministers, deputy ministers and security chiefs arrived on Monday morning in the Gaza Strip after crossing the borders between the northern tip of the coastal enclave and Israel, coming from the West Bank city of Ramallah.
It is the first visit of Hamdallah and his government's members, ministers and security chiefs to the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip since December 2017. The visit aimed at handing over the rule of Gaza, according to an Egyptian-brokered reconciliation agreement reached in Cairo last month .
The consensus government was formed in June 2017, in accordance to an agreement reached in the house of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in April 2017 between Hamas and Fatah.
Hundreds of Palestinians gathered to the sides of the road near Erez Crossing Point on the borders waving Palestinian flags to receive the large convoy of Hamdallah and his team. They expressed happiness and hope that the visit of the government to Gaza would improve their hard daily living condition.
Around 200 Palestinian figures, representing the Palestinian factions, society notables and head of local society organizations received Hamdallah and his government at the checkpoint. The convoy headed to have lunch at the home of Ahmed Helles, member in Fatah Central Committee, in eastern Gaza City.
