President Trump suggests relocating Palestinians from Gaza to other countries and proposes US 'ownership' of the territory, envisioning it as 'the Riviera of the Middle East.' The proposal faces strong opposition from US allies and critics who warn of regional instability and undermine efforts for a two-state solution.

I think that might be problematic, but I’ll keep an open mind.”A fragile ceasefireThe White House's focus on the future of Gaza comes as the nascent truce between Israel and Hamas hangs in the balance.
