A Hamas official said today his group will not stop its suicide attacks in Israel ahead of inter-Palestinian talks in Cairo aimed at reaching a truce.

"Hamas officially informed Egypt of its final answer: our position is against ending the resistance and abiding by a one-year truce," the spokesman said, stressing that "operations inside Israel would continue".

"It has been decided that the inter-Palestinian dialogue would resume in Cairo on January 22nd and we will attend," he said.

"We believe the talks will lead to positive results because this time all Palestinian factions have been invited by Egypt to attend and will confirm the right of our people to resist," he added, without giving any further details.
