Amid rising tensions, President Trump has warned Hamas to release hostages or face severe consequences, aligning with Netanyahu's strategies for Gaza. However, Egypt is developing an alternative plan aimed at rebuilding Gaza without forcing Palestinians out, in stark contrast to Trump's suggested depopulation for U.S. takeover. The proposal, involving secure areas for initial habitation and plans for reconstruction, has gained traction among Arab states and European diplomats as Israel and Hamas prepare for critical ceasefire negotiations. The situation remains precarious, with the fate of hostages, ethical concerns over potential forced relocations, and international backlash at the forefront.
