Egypt says Gaza should be rebuilt without displacing Palestinians

Egypt's president called on the international community on Wednesday to adopt a plan to rebuild war-torn Gaza without displacing Palestinians, after a proposal by US President Donald Trump to '"take over" the Gaza Strip and forcefully move the population to Jordan and Egypt. 

"We stressed the importance of the international community adopting a plan to reconstruct the Gaza Strip without displacing Palestinians. I repeat, without displacing Palestinians from their lands," President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi told a press conference with Spain's prime minister in Madrid.
