Egypt to Host Emergency Arab Summit Over Trump's Controversial Gaza Plan

The February 27 summit will address regional backlash to a U.S. proposal to resettle Palestinians and establish American control in Gaza.

Egypt has announced an emergency Arab League summit on February 27 to address recent developments regarding the Palestinian cause.
The summit follows U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal to resettle 1.8 million Palestinians from Gaza to Egypt and Jordan, a plan widely rejected across the Arab world.
Trump's idea includes U.S. administration of Gaza, envisioning its transformation into a tourism hub, which has sparked significant opposition from Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia.
Palestinian authorities formally requested the summit, with Egypt coordinating discussions with Arab nations, including Bahrain, which currently chairs the Arab League.
Arab leaders have reaffirmed their commitment to a two-state solution, rejecting any forced displacement of Palestinians or changes to Gaza's governance.
