(Israel Hayom) Daniel Siryoti - Senior security officials from Israel, Jordan, and the PA confirm that security coordination and intelligence cooperation are operating with "Swiss clock" precision.

Hamas would then quickly and brutally oust Fatah officials from all government agencies, ministries, and the PA security and intelligence apparatuses.
