Arab League secretary-general Ahmed Aboul Gheit rejected on Wednesday any forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza and the occupied West Bank, calling it "unacceptable" for the region.
"The focus today is on Gaza and tomorrow it will shift to the West Bank with the objective of emptying Palestine of its historical inhabitants," he said at the World Governments Summit in Dubai.
"It's unacceptable for the Arab world, which has fought this idea for 100 years."
Aboul Gheit was commenting on US President Donald Trump's plan to forcibly move Palestinians out of Gaza which has been widely condemned by the Arab world.
