For the first time since its formation in early June, the government of national consensus met in Gaza Oct. 9 in the presence of Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah. The meeting took place in the residence of President Mahmoud Abbas, west of Gaza City.
Al-Monitor followed up on the arrangements to hold the Cabinet meeting in Gaza, noting that all security, administrative and protocol preparations had been carried out by employees affiliated with the previous government of Hamas, although a number of security officers also arrived from the West Bank.
