PA bans Hamas conference in West Bank
Ma'an Hamas' spokesperson Fawzi Barhoum on Sunday described banning a Hamas conference in the West Bank as formal decision by the Palestinian Authority to ban all Hamas activity in the West Bank. At a press conference in Gaza City Barhoum said, "Hamas' voice in the West Bank will resound despite the tyrannical conduct of the Palestinian Authority. Such conduct reflects a policy of restricting freedom of expression in the West Bank while in Gaza Strip, all the Palestinian factions including Fatah enjoy that freedom." Acording to the spokesperson, a press conference was supposed to be held in Ramallah by Hamas' members Hussain Abu Kreik and Faraj Rummana, but they were summoned and arrested by the Palestinian preventive security.
