Hamas leader in exile Khaled Mashaal, in an interview with London-based Arabic newspaper Al-Hayat, says if war is foisted on Gaza again the fighting will not be confined to the strip but will be regional. He was speaking after meeting with Russian diplomats who hope to get peace talks going again. On this Mashaal said he did not see any prospects for peace in the near future because of Israel's extremist leadership, which he said was encouraged by division among Palestinians and the weak response of the Arab nation as a whole. He also vowed to avenge the killing of al-Mabhouh.
He also welcomed Russia's refusal to follow the West in labelling Hamas as a terrorist movement.
