His statement came Wednesday after several media agencies in Palestine reported that Hamas movement decided to approve the Egyptian document as it is, and that it sent a letter in this regard to its leadership in exile.

The Hamas leader added that his movement fears deterioration in the Hamas-Egypt relations, as such a deterioration would have negative impacts on the living conditions and the political situation in Gaza as Egypt is the main link between the Gaza Strip and the rest of the world.

Hamas had asked Egypt for a 24-hour period to respond to the document.
