Palestinians Reject Israeli Economic Package
(AFP) The Palestinian Authority rejected on Saturday a package of economic cooperation measures announced by Israel the day before, calling it "totally unacceptable." Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday approved a raft of measures that included a proposal for developing natural gas fields. Netanyahu said that steps would be undertaken to make Hamas-run Gaza "independent of Israeli infrastructure by helping to develop their electricity plants, water and sewage treatment."
