Arab leaders are gathering in Cairo today to discuss an alternative to a widely condemned plan from US President Donald Trump to assume control of war-battered Gaza and displace its Palestinian population. The Arab League summit on the territory’s reconstruction comes a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu again gave his backing to Mr Trump’s plan, calling it “visionary and innovative”. Palestinians, along with the Arab world and many of Israel and the US’ partners, have condemned Mr Trump’s proposal, rejecting any efforts to expel Gazans.
