Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas said on Thursdays that Israel and Hamas were holding meetings to discuss ending the blockade of Gaza, Haaretz reported.

"There are meetings taking place between Hamas and Israel, there were meetings held on Erez (crossing point) and there are ongoing meetings in other places," Abbas told Al-Arabiya television network.

Israel denied that any meetings had taken place.
