The deputy head of the political bureau of Hamas, Mousa Abu Marzouk arrived in Moscow Monday evening, accompanied by high-profile delegation.

It is expected that the delegation, which includes Saleh El-Arori, will hold various meetings with Russian officials in an attempt to foster relations between Hamas and Russia.

Both sides are yet to discuss many core issues including the latest development inside the Palestinian arena, the ongoing talks to achieve internal reconciliation, and the Russian role that might be played to push these files forward.
