Israel discusses Hawatmah's entry to the self ruling areas

Palestinian sources in Cairo stated today that Israel is currently discussing allowing Nayef Hawatmah, the head of the opposition Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, to enter the Palestinian self rule areas.

The sources added that Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak will make a decision in this matter during the next few days.

Israel accused Hawatmah of opposing the peace treaty and the continuation of his front in the armed struggle against Israel to regain the legal rights.
