US reportedly developing plan to move 1 million Palestinians to Libya
The Trump administration is working on a plan to permanently relocate as much as one million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Libya, NBC News reports, citing five people with knowledge of the matter.
The plan is under serious enough consideration that the US has discussed it with Libya’s leadership, the report says.
In exchange for resettling the Palestinians, the administration would release to Libya billions of dollars of funds the US froze more than a decade ago, NBC adds.
