- US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said there was no plan to forcibly displace Palestinians from Gaza.
- His statement came after Israeli far-right minister Itamar Ben Gvir proposed a plan to move 250,000 Palestinians within a year and nearly the entire Palestinian population within seven years.
There is no plan to forcibly displace Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said during a Saturday visit to the occupied West Bank.
The statement followed a proposal by Itamar Ben Gvir, Israel’s far-right national security minister. Ben Gvir said 250,000 Palestinians should leave Gaza within a year, followed by practically the entire Palestinian population over the next six years.
Huckabee’s remarks directly rejected the existence of such a forced-displacement plan, while Ben Gvir’s proposal had brought the issue into public view.
