Gaza Palestinian Relocation Plan Stirs Global Outcry
Share this @internewscast.com

The Gaza Palestinian Relocation Plan, reported in May 2025, involves the Trump administration exploring the transfer of up to 1 million Palestinians from Gaza to Libya.

“No comment,” a White House official told NBC News, sidestepping questions. For example, NBC News cited five sources claiming U.S. talks with Libyan leaders offered billions in frozen funds.

The State Department has dismissed the allegations, labeling them as “false.” Additionally, Gaza’s worsening humanitarian situation, marked by more than 250 fatalities from Israeli airstrikes in May 2025 and exacerbated by restrictions on aid, is said to be fueling the proposal, according to Reuters.

“People are dying,” a UN official said. The Gaza relocation proposal raises concerns about U.S. policy.

Libya Talks Spark Debate

The initiative to resettle Palestinians is contingent upon Libya’s collaboration. The U.S. has suggested releasing funds that have been frozen for over ten years, reports NBC News. However, Libya’s Government of National Unity, headed by Abdul Hamid Dbeibah, is contending with opposition from factions loyal to Khalifa Haftar.

For instance, Reuters reported clashes in Tripoli on May 16, 2025. In addition, the State Department warns of “crime, terrorism, and armed conflict” in Libya, complicating resettlement.

The U.S. Gaza migration plan struggles amid these challenges.

Relocating 1 million Palestinians 1,300 miles to Libya is daunting. For example, airlifts would require over 1,173 flights, per NBC News. Alternatively, land routes through Egypt span 1,300 miles. Moreover, sea ferries are an option.

However, Libya’s unrest, with ongoing factional conflicts, complicates execution. The Libya Palestinian resettlement remains uncertain without clear funding or infrastructure.

Hamas Opposes Proposal

Hamas rejects the Trump’s Gaza relocation effort. “Palestinians are rooted in their homeland,” official Basem Naim told NBC News, stressing Gazans’ right to stay despite airstrikes and starvation.

For example, Gaza’s Health Ministry reported over 250 deaths in May 2025.

Consequently, the lack of Palestinian consent fuels criticism.

Moreover, Hamas’s ceasefire talks complicate U.S. plans. The Gaza Palestinian Relocation Plan ignores local voices.

Global Criticism Grows

The Gaza Palestinian Relocation Plan draws backlash. For example, Jordan’s King Abdullah rejected displacing Palestinians, per The Times of Israel:

Jordan’s King Abdullah said on Wednesday he rejected any attempts to annex land and displace Palestinians after a shock proposal by President Donald Trump that the U.S. take over Gaza, an issue that strikes a raw nerve in the kingdom.

Trump said on Tuesday that under his plan Palestinians would be resettled elsewhere and Gaza would be developed economically, an idea that elicited widespread international condemnation.

Similarly, Egypt prioritized Gaza reconstruction. In addition, Senator Lindsey Graham called the plan “problematic,” per The Washington Post.

Furthermore, the U.S.’s 2011 NATO intervention in Libya fueled ongoing instability, per Reuters, raising concerns about relocating Palestinians to a region destabilized by prior U.S. actions.

As a result, the U.S.-Libya migration deal faces opposition. Who decides Gaza’s future?
