CAMPAIGNERS called today for worldwide unity against  “grotesque” plans by US President Donald Trump to take over the Gaza Strip and forcibly evict the Palestinian population.

During a press conference from the White House on Tuesday, alongside a smirking Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump detailed a plan to build new settlements for Palestinians outside Gaza and for the US to take “ownership” in redeveloping the war-torn territory into “the Riviera of the Middle East.”

President Trump said: “The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too.
