The two leaders "will discuss the security situation in Israel and the region," the statement said Merkel's spokesman.

Deputy head of Hamas' political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, said Friday in a taped speech broadcast at a conference in Istanbul that "the Jerusalem intifada must go on and the resistance must be intensified.”
