Arafat visits Sheikh Yassin at hospital

Chairman of the Palestinian Authority Yasser Arafat on Saturday in Gaza visited the chairman of the Hamas Movement Sheikh Ahmad Yassin at al-Shefaa hospital in Gaza where Sheikh Yassin is under medical treatment. The meeting is considered the first since a very long time between Arafat and Yassin who was admitted to hospital last Thursday after he had a strong cold that had repeatedly obliged him several times to hospital.
