A Palestinian holds a Palestinian flag on the top of destroyed houses during early celebrations regarding Israel`s imminent pull out from Gaza in front of the Jewish settlement of Neve Dekalim, southern Gaza strip August 9, 2005. President Mahmoud Abbas urged the Palestinians on Tuesday to ensure calm for Israel`s evacuation of its Gaza settlements, saying an orderly transfer of control would boost the Palestinian quest for statehood.
