The president, calling the heavily bombed enclave “a demolition site,” proposed relocating Palestinians temporarily or long-term, a move rejected by Arab countries since the war began.

Trump floated the idea on Saturday, saying he would urge the leaders of the two Arab countries to take in Gaza’s now largely homeless population, so that “we just clean out that whole thing.”

President Donald Trump said he wants to "clean out" the Gaza Strip, and have Egypt and Jordan to take in millions of displaced Palestinians.
