Representative of Hamas Movement in Iran Khaled al-Qaddoumi met with the Iranian president’s special assistant Ali Akbar Salehi on Sunday evening.

During the meeting, they both discussed three main topics: the new developments in the occupied Palestinian territories, the ongoing uprising, and bilateral relations.

Hamas’s representative described the meeting as “positive”, adding that he briefed the Iranian official about the Israeli attempts to divide al-Aqsa Mosque which led to the outbreak of the ongoing Jerusalem Intifada.
