Palestinian president Mahmud Abbass agreed with the Israeli Defence Minister Shaul Mofaz for a withdrawal of the troops that are occupying many cities in the West Bank.
A date was not fixed but that will depend by further diplomatic developments.
Mofaz said to a press conference on Monday that, "In the coming days, we will apparently transfer two more cities after a meeting between military commanders tomorrow. We are talking about Tulkaram and Jericho."
Abbas declared, "The committees will begin working tomorrow. We have completed preparations with the Israeli side on the handover of Tulkaram.
"Tomorrow they will work on finalising preparations for handing over Jericho. They will withdraw from Jericho first."
