Far-right Otzma Yehudit party leader Itamar Ben Gvir welcomes US President Donald Trump’s proposal to move some of Gaza’s population to Jordan and Egypt, temporarily or permanently.
“I commend US President Trump for the initiative to transfer residents from Gaza to Jordan and Egypt,” Ben Gvir writes on X.
“One of our demands from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to promote voluntary emigration. When the president of the world’s greatest superpower, Trump, personally brings up this idea, it is worth the Israeli government implementing it — promote emigration now!
