UN Warns Against Forcible Transfer of Palestinians from Gaza

The United Nations Human Rights Office has reiterated that any forcible transfer or deportation of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip is strictly prohibited under international law. This statement comes in response to President Trump's recent proposal to 'take over' Gaza, suggesting that the U.S. could assume control and relocate its Palestinian residents. UN officials emphasized the need for a ceasefire, the release of hostages, and the reconstruction of Gaza while adhering to humanitarian laws. France and Brazil have also condemned Trump's proposal, labeling it as a serious violation of international law that undermines the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people and threatens regional stability. French officials stressed that Gaza's future should not involve control by a third country and must align with the establishment of a Palestinian state. The situation continues to raise significant concerns among international leaders regarding the potential implications of such actions for peace in the region.
