Description
GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Hamas on Thursday accused the Fatah-led Palestinian Authority of detaining 61 party members in the West Bank in April.Some 21 of those detained were previously imprisoned by Israel, Hamas said in a statement.
The PA also extended the detention of 11 Hamas members despite court decisions to release them, Hamas added.
Meanwhile, two teachers were fired from government schools in the West Bank over their affiliation to Hamas, the party said.
Hamas, which governs the Gaza Strip, signed a reconciliation deal with Fatah in Cairo in May 2011. Both parties agreed to end political detentions and to form a government of technocrats to prepare for elections within a year.
A year on, the deal has yet to be implemented.
