Donald Trump suggested the US could "take over" Gaza and resettle Palestinians elsewhere while rebuilding the enclave into "the Riviera of the Middle East." Speaking alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, Trump proposed removing unexploded bombs and revitalizing Gaza's economy. Netanyahu called the plan "worth paying attention to." Trump also warned Iran against developing nuclear weapons, saying it would be "unfortunate" if Tehran pursued atomic bombs. Netanyahu praised Trump as "Israel's greatest friend," recalling his relocation of the US embassy to Jerusalem. Observers called Trump's Gaza proposal "head-spinning."
