Israel in talks with countries to discuss 'resettlement' of Palestinians in Gaza

The Israeli media outlet Haaretz is reporting that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is holding talks with countries to discuss “the option of absorbing many Gazan residents”.

His statements come after his recent visit to the US on Tuesday, where he met with US president Donald Trump. Netanyahu said they discussed Trump's "vision" for Gaza.

Trump had again proposed taking "the Palestinians and move them around to different countries", which has been criticised by world leaders and human rights bodies as "forced displacement" and "ethnic cleansing".
