BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Fatah central committee member Abbas Zaki said Thursday that official relations between the movement and the Syrian regime would be re-established after 32 years.

Zaki told Ma'an that a visit by a Fatah delegation to Syria was "successful," adding that Fatah offices will be opened in Syria soon after it was the only Palestinian movement not allowed to have any offices in Syria.

Zaki said the visit was part of improving bilateral relations between the two. He said a recent delegation observed the situation there, especially the suffering of Palestinians in refugee camps.

He added that they discussed with the Syrian regime the return of those displaced to their camps that were freed by the Syrian regime, in addition to the issue of refugees who lost their IDs and the issue of people arrested for minor offenses.

The the rest is under the control of a local armed group the People's Army and allied factions. He added that an agreement was reached to facilitate the entry of food and medical supplies to the camp.

In regard to Yarmouk refugee camp, Zaki said two thirds of the camp was still under ISIS control.
