Trump's Gaza Control Plans Face Global Backlash Amid Ceasefire Tensions

President Donald Trump has announced his commitment to 'buy and own' Gaza, a plan that has drawn widespread condemnation from international leaders and human rights groups who view it as a potential act of ethnic cleansing. During a press conference aboard Air Force One, Trump suggested that parts of Gaza could be rebuilt by other Middle Eastern nations while asserting that the territory would be controlled by the U.S. His remarks come amid a fragile situation regarding a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, with the latter halting further hostages' releases, citing a lack of U.S. guarantees for the agreement. Hamas officials, including Khalil al-Hayya, have rejected Trump's plans, emphasizing that Gaza is not for sale and is part of occupied Palestinian land. As tensions escalate, regional leaders, including those from Jordan and Saudi Arabia, are expected to voice concerns over Trump's proposals during upcoming meetings. Critics fear that Trump's approach may further destabilize the region and undermine peace efforts.
