Egypt to present ‘comprehensive’ plan for rebuilding Gaza while Palestinians stay there

Egypt plans to “present a comprehensive vision for the reconstruction” of the Gaza Strip that ensures Palestinians remain on their land, the Egyptian foreign ministry says in a statement.

Egypt “hopes to cooperate” with the administration of US President Donald Trump “to reach comprehensive and just peace in the region.”

The statement comes as Trump continues to press for his plan to take over the Gaza Strip and resettle its population to neighboring Egypt and Jordan despite rejection from Arab states.
