A Hamas delegation led by the movement’s leader, Ismail Haniyeh, was set to visit Saudi Arabia on Sunday after years of tense relations, Palestinian media outlets reported. The delegation is visiting Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah, a nonobligatory Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, but has “not ruled out” holding meetings with Saudi officials as well, according to Hamas-affiliated Al Resalah news site. Khaled Mashaal, head of Hamas’s diaspora office, and Hamas officials Musa Abu Marzouk and Zaher Jabarin are part of the delegation, the report said.
