Trump says Israel will hand  Gaza over to US after fighting ends.

Thousands of displaced Palestinians  have traveled from  southern Gaza to the  northern strip following a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in  January.
US President Donald Trump has  reaffirmed a vision in which the  United States would take  control of Gaza, after officials in his administration appeared to contradict his  previous comments.
"The Gaza Strip  will be  handed over to the United States by Israel at the  end of  the fighting," Trump said on Thursday. He reiterated that the idea  involved the displacement of Palestinians and that  there would be  no need for US troops.
Trump's relocation idea has  sparked accusations that he is  plotting ethnic  cleansing and has  been condemned by the UN, human rights groups and Arab leaders. Analysts doubt it will ever  happen. After Trump's initial comments on the issue, his officials suggested  that any relocation would  only be  temporary.
Under his plan, Trump wrote  in Truth Social,  Gaza residents "would already  be settled in  much safer and more beautiful communities, with  new, modern homes, in the  area." The  United States would  participate in an effort to  reclaim the enclave, he  said.
His message did not  specify whether the two million residents of the Palestinian territory would be invited to  return.
Under international law, attempts to forcibly transfer  the population of occupied territory are strictly  prohibited. White House spokeswoman  Caroline Leavitt said Wednesday that any  move would be temporary. In his  comments the same day, Secretary of State Rubio said the idea was for  Gaza residents to leave the territory for  a "temporary" period while  the rubble was cleared and reconstruction took  place.
Those views contradicted  Trump's initial comments on the  issue. Speaking on Tuesday, when he proposed  making Gaza the  "Riviera of the Middle  East," Trump suggested that the displacement of Palestinians would be  permanent.
"The United States is taking control of the Gaza Strip and we will  still work with  it," he said Tuesday  at a joint  news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who called the idea  "an interest that should be considered." The announcement  also caught Trump's advisers by  surprise, given the lack of planning around the idea, the New York Times reported, citing four  unidentified sources  familiar with the  discussions.
Trump's new comment on  Thursday, that no American  troops would be  needed, was more clearly in  line with Leavitt, who said the  United States had not committed to  sending "boots on the  ground."
Speaking at a prayer  breakfast a short time later, the president briefly  addressed the situation in  Gaza but  made no mention  of his stated plans for the  United States to  "take control" of the  territory.
Turning his attention to the Middle East, Trump said he hoped  his "greatest legacy  would be  to be known as a peacemaker and a  unifier."
