Indonesia offers shelter to Palestinian medical evacuees and orphaned children

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto announced on Wednesday that his country will provide temporary shelter to Palestinian medical evacuees and orphaned children from Gaza. "We are ready to evacuate those injured, traumatised, and orphaned, and bring them to Indonesia," he stated, confirming that planes would be dispatched for their transport.

Indonesia plans to receive about 1,000 evacuees, who will remain until they recover and it's safe to return to Gaza. Subianto clarified this is not a permanent resettlement offer.

Speaking before a Middle East tour, he revealed that he would consult with leaders in Turkey, Egypt, Qatar, and Jordan on the matter.
