Global Outcry Over Trump's Gaza Relocation Proposal

President Donald Trump's controversial plan to relocate Palestinians from Gaza and have the U.S. take control of the territory has faced widespread international condemnation. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz supports the plan, instructing the military to prepare for the voluntary emigration of Gazans, which critics such as Human Rights Watch label as ethnic cleansing. Egypt and Saudi Arabia have opposed the plan, fearing regional destabilization and the undermining of existing peace treaties. Despite initial claims that the relocation would be permanent, U.S. officials have since clarified it would be temporary, aimed at facilitating reconstruction in Gaza. The proposal has been rejected by Palestinians and several international leaders, who argue it dismisses the long-standing pursuit of a Palestinian state. Katz has also called on countries like Spain, Ireland, and Norway to accept refugees, highlighting their criticism of Israel's actions in Gaza.
