US President Donald Trump has floated a potential plan to “clean out” Gaza and said on Saturday (local time) that he is pressing Jordan and Egypt to take in Palestinians from the war-torn territory.
Trump indicated that he had spoken with the king of Jordan about a plan to build housing and shift over 1 million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to other nations, CNN reported.
When asked about his call with Jordan’s Abdullah II earlier in the day, Trump said that he has asked the king to accommodate more Palestinians into his nation.
“I said to him that I’d love you to take on more, because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now and it’s a mess, it’s a real mess,” he told reporters aboard Air Force One, CNN reported.
