Shafaq News/ The United States and Israelhave discussed relocating Palestinians from Gaza to Sudan, Somalia, andSomaliland, according to US and Israeli officials cited by The AssociatedPress.
The discussions are part of a broader planlinked to US President Donald Trump, which proposed relocating over two millionGaza residents to Jordan and Egypt while the US would oversee Gaza’sredevelopment. The plan has faced international criticism and rejection by Arabnations and several other countries.
In their conversation with The AssociatedPress, American and Israeli officials, who requested anonymity, confirmed talkswith Somalia and Somaliland about potential relocation options. US officialsalso mentioned Sudan’s involvement but indicated uncertainty about the progressand level of engagement in those talks.
The communications with Sudan, Somalia,and the separatist region of Somaliland, according to the agency, reflect thedetermination of the US and Israel to proceed with a plan that has raisedserious legal and ethical concerns.
Sudanese figures, however, told the APthat they rejected initiatives from the United States, while Somali andSomaliland officials stated they were unaware of any such communications.
As part of the deal, the US removed Sudanfrom its list of state sponsors of terrorism, restoring the country’s access tointernational loans and financial aid. Nevertheless, relations with Israel havefaltered as Sudan has been engulfed in a civil war between government forcesand the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
Two Sudanese figures, speakinganonymously, said Trump administration contacts with Sudan’s military-ledgovernment began before Trump’s inauguration. Offers included military supportagainst the RSF, post-war reconstruction aid, and other incentives in returnfor cooperation in resettling Gaza residents.
As for Somaliland, where leaders havepursued international recognition for over 30 years, the matter remains a “priority”for the region. An American official involved in the efforts confirmed that theUS had been quietly engaging with Somaliland on a range of areas that couldbenefit Washington in exchange for recognition.
