Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday there was nothing wrong in Donald Trump's idea of displacing Palestinians from Gaza after the U.S. president's proposal drew international criticism.

President Donald Trump said Tuesday he doesn’t think there is a permanent future for Palestinians in Gaza, saying the war-torn enclave is uninhabitable and that its residents have no choice but to leave for good.

President Trump said that the United States should take over Gaza and forcibly relocate two million Palestinians. Leaders in Gaza and Arab nations immediately rejected the idea.
