Trump’s Gaza plan involves ‘voluntary’ relocation of Palestinians – and giving them $5,000 each: report
Trump mulling ‘AI-powered smart cities’ to replace Gaza – report
- A post-war redevelopment plan for Gaza, reportedly considered by US President Donald Trump's administration, proposes paying its two million Palestinian residents $5,000 each to "voluntarily" relocate.
- The "Great Trust" blueprint, drawn up by the Boston Consulting Group, envisions replacing the current population with six to eight "AI-powered smart planned cities," according to the Washington Post.
- The ambitious project would be funded through joint public and private sector investments, rather than US government funds, with Israel retaining "overarching rights to meet its security needs."
- Internal policing in the redeveloped Gaza would initially be handled by third-country nationals and "Western" private military contractors until local forces are trained.
- The proposal faces potential opposition from Arab states like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, who support an alternative "Egypt plan" that redevelops the region without displacing its current inhabitants.
