GHF proposed camps for Palestinians to 'reside, de-radicalise and re-integrate'

The controversial US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has proposed creating camps called “Humanitarian Transit Areas” in the Gaza Strip to house Palestinians and "deradicalise" them, Reuters reported on Monday.

The proposal is part of an overall strategy to end the control of Hamas over the Palestinian enclave.

Reuters reported that the $2bn plan was submitted to the Trump administration and recently discussed in the White House.

The camps are described as "large-scale" and "voluntary" in the plan, and places that Palestinians can “temporarily reside, deradicalize, re-integrate and prepare to relocate if they wish to do so”.

A slide deck seen by Reuters called for using the sprawling facilities to "gain trust with the local population" and to facilitate US President Donald Trump's "vision for Gaza".
