AI Summary:
United States and Israel discuss forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza to Sudan, Somalia and its breakaway region of Somaliland. US and Israeli officials confirmed contacts with Somalia. The development comes more than a month after US President Donald Trump floated the idea of forcibly displacing Palestinians and taking over the Gaza Strip. Tamer Qarmout, an associate professor at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, said the forced displacement of Palestinians is a red line that should not be crossed. He said governments around the world have a responsibility to stop the “outrageous” proposal and “should not be engaging with Israel on any of these scenarios”. In exchange for accepting resettled Palestinians, it is thought that a variety of incentives – financial, diplomatic and security – would be offered to the East African governments. The US could offer the breakaway region of more than 3 million people international recognition.
