(MENAFN- QNA) An Egyptian appeals court on Saturday canceled a ruling to list the Palestinian group Hamas as a "terrorist organization", judicial sources said.
The Urgent Matters Appeals Court cited a lack of jurisdiction as the reason for annulling the earlier court's ruling.
Sami Abu Zuhri, Hamas spokesman in Gaza, welcomed the court's ruling, saying it would have "positive consequences on the relationship between Hamas and Egypt."
