Egyptian mediators 'postpone' Fatah-Hamas reconciliation talks

The sources did not say when the Hamas-Fatah reconciliation talks were likely to start and there was no official word immediately available from Hamas or Fatah. The sources said mediators remained convinced that a deal between Hamas and Fatah was still attainable.
Egypt mediated a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel last month, ending an 11-day war in which more than 250 Palestinians and 13 Israelis were killed. It has followed up on the May 21 ceasefire with stepped up diplomacy to prevent another outbreak of hostilities.
Fatah is the main faction in the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority led by President Mahmoud Abbas. It has been at odds with the militant Hamas group since the two sides fought a brief civil war in the Gaza Strip in 2007, which ended with Fatah’s expulsion from the coastal enclave.

Turkey warns Baghdad it could 'cleanse' refugee camp hosting PKK fighters

For years Turkey has been battling an insurgency carried out by the PKK since the early 1980s.
Ankara has carried out numerous cross-border incursions into Iraq over the years to fight the militant group, which maintains bases in the region.
Tens of thousands of people have been killed since the insurgency in Turkey’s majority Kurdish south-east region began in 1984.
The PKK is designated a terrorist organisation by the US and the European Union.
"How long do we have to be patient?” Mr Erdogan said.
The Turkish president believes that Makhmour camp poses a threat no less than the one posed by the Qandil Mountains, a PKK stronghold also located in northern Iraq.
