During an extended question-and-answer on Air Force One, President Trump floated the idea of moving Palestinians to create a clean slate.

Steve Witkoff, Trump’s envoy to the Middle East, plans to be a near-constant presence in the region in an attempt to prevent the deal from unraveling.

Speaking about the effects of Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza, Mr Trump said he complimented Jordan for having successfully accepted Palestinian refugees and that he told the king: “I’d love for you to take on more, cause I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now, and it’s a mess. It’s a real mess.”

"It is striking that Israel was not mentioned in the president's inauguration speech," a senior Hamas official told Newsweek.

President Donald Trump proposed relocating Palestinian refugees from Gaza to Jordan, Egypt, and other Arab nations, calling Gaza a "demolition site." He suggested building housing elsewhere for Palestinians to live "in peace.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suggested Friday that his county’s military might not withdraw all of its forces from Lebanon by this weekend’s deadline set in its ceasefire with Hezbollah.

President Trump called for Egypt and Jordan to accept additional Palestinian refugees while suggesting a plan to "just clean out" Gaza.

During a 20-minute question-and-answer session with reporters aboard Air Force One on Saturday, Trump also said he’s ended his predecessor’s hold on sending 2,000-pound bombs to Israel. That lifts a pressure point that had been meant to reduce civilian casualties during Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza that is now halted by a tenuous ceasefire.

Israel wants to annex the occupied West Bank and further weaken Iran, but Trump's other priorities may hold those back
