Muslim nations say Israel’s Gaza expulsion plans threaten Trump’s peace effort
Foreign ministers from eight Muslim nations condemned proposals to forcibly expel Palestinians, saying the proposals challenge president Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza.
Eight Islamic and Arab nations denounced Israeli plans to expel Palestinians from Gaza, alleging the proposals threaten a US-backed peace initiative in the region. Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz revealed the government's intention to remove Palestinians from Gaza, awaiting US approval on the destination of the displaced population. National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir confirmed the plan aims to relocate 250,000 Palestinians in the first year, with the remaining two million over the following six years.
Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, Pakistan, Indonesia, and Turkey denounced the proposals in the strongest terms, describing them as direct challenges to international efforts for peace. The condemnation specifically references US President Donald Trump's comprehensive peace plan for Gaza, which strongly opposes forced displacement. US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, a supporter of Israel and Israeli settlers in the West Bank, denied any Israeli plan to forcibly relocate Palestinians from Gaza.
