President Donald Trump has proposed that Jordan and Egypt accept more Palestinian refugees from Gaza to alleviate the ongoing humanitarian crisis. He discussed this idea during a conversation with Jordan's King Abdullah II and plans to speak with Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. Trump suggested that relocating Palestinians could be a temporary or permanent solution, aiming to provide them with peaceful living conditions away from the conflict.
This proposal comes amid a fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, which has led to the release of some hostages and prisoners. The conflict, initiated by a Hamas attack on Israel in 2023, has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and widespread displacement. Israel faces international accusations of war crimes, which it denies.
