His comments come in response to a proposal put forward earlier this month by US President Donald Trump, which suggested a US-led administration of Gaza and the relocation of its population to other countries, including Egypt and Jordan. The plan has been widely condemned by Arab governments, while the United Nations has warned that such a move could amount to ‘ethnic cleansing’.
