Clashes between Hamas and Fatah in the Gaza Strip continued for a second day Tuesday, as two Palestinians were killed in a gun battle between Hamas security men and a family affiliated with Fatah.

According to medical officials and Hamas, the two men killed in the fighting were a Fatah supporter and a Hamas policeman, bringing the total death count to eight since the clashes broke out Monday.

Meanwhile, Hamas signaled to Israel that it would agree to a lull in fighting.

On Monday, the 43rd anniversary of the establishment of Fatah, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas called on Hamas to cede control over the Gaza Strip and return to reconciliation talks and early elections. Hours after his speech, internecine fighting broke out between Fatah and Hamas in Gaza, killing at least six and injuring 70.

Medical officials said one of the dead was a Hamas police officer, another was a teenager and a third was a Fatah supporter.

Fatah said dozens of its activists were arrested overnight, and that one of its leaders in Gaza City was briefly detained by Hamas forces who shaved off half his hair and mustache as humiliation. Hamas denied the charge. Islam Shahwan, a spokesman for Hamas security forces, confirmed
only that his men made a number of arrests.

These were the first fatalities in Fatah-Hamas fighting since November 11, when Hamas forces opened fire on a huge Fatah rally, killing eight and wounding about 85.

In the anniversary speech Monday that lasted almost an hour and a half, Abbas offered to talk to Hamas.

"I renew the option of early elections... and I pledge that I will do my best to ensure this election will be the product of a deep and brotherly understanding," Abbas said in his speech.

"I urge all, Fatah and Hamas movements and all other Palestinian factions, to study this alternative and not to rush, as usual, to reject it".

He also called on Hamas "to open a new page in relations within our Palestinian home," in a conciliatory tone.

Hamas spokesman Barhoum said that while the group was ready for dialogue with Fatah, it would not accept Abbas' demand to first give up control of the Strip.

"Abbas is betting on the American-Zionist project and not on dialogue with Hamas," Barhoum told a news conference in Gaza. "We renew our readiness and willingness to restore dialogue with Fatah without conditions."

Hamas signals it would agree to a lull in fighting with Israel

Hamas has signaled to Israel, through various interlocutors, that it would agree to a tahdiye (a lull) in the fighting in the Gaza Strip, even though there is still no agreement within the radical Islamist group about such option.

Hamas is trying to reach agreement with other radical groups in the Gaza Strip, in order to halt the rocket and mortar attacks against Israel.

However, within Hamas itself, there is opposition to any form of compromise with Israel, Haaretz has learned from spokesmen of the Hamas administration in the Gaza Strip.

In a conversation with Haaretz, Taher al-Nunu, spokesman for the administration, Hamas has wanted a tahdiye for some time which would include a stop of Israeli offensive operations, in return for an end to Palestinian attacks, including rocket barrages.

Al-Nunu explained that the closing down of the crossing points by Israel following the Hamas takeover of the Strip in June, has caused great suffering to the population, but did not say that lifting the siege would be one of the conditions for a lull in the fighting.

However, a source close to former PA prime minister and Hamas leader in the Strip, Ismail Haniyeh, said that "the tahdiye must include an opening of the border crossings for the passage of goods and people, and the lifting of the economic embargo on the Strip."

The same source explained that "tahdiye is different from a hudna (a cease-fire). The meaning is that tahdiye will be of short duration, only a few months, and not a hudna which may be a temporary solution, but can be the start of a longer diplomatic framework. There is no new policy of the organization or the government, but there is no point in an end to the assassinations policy [the IDF targeting of militants] if the siege will continue and the crossings remain closed."

The Hamas movement's spokesman, Fawzi Barhoum, told Haaretz that any lull in the fighting must be comprehensive.

"If Israel ceases all forms of aggression, including arrests, assassinations, invasions, and also opens the crossings and lifts the siege on the Strip, Hamas will consider favorably taking steps on behalf of the Palestinian people, in the form of a tahdiye."

But Hamas is not only experiencing difficulties formulating a common position within the organization, but is also finding that talks with Islamic Jihad and the Popular Resistance Committees are also proving inconclusive due to differences of opinion among factions within those groups.
