Israel's Mossad asking African countries to take Palestinians from Gaza: Report

Israel's foreign intelligence agency, the Mossad, has been tasked with approaching multiple African nations to ask them to take Palestinians from Gaza, Axios reported on Friday. 

Talks have already taken place with Somalia and South Sudan on the orders of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the report said. 

The move follows last month's proposal by US President Donald Trump to expel Palestinians from the enclave to turn it into a US-bankrolled beach resort. 

The move was strongly denounced by the international community.
