PA Chairman Abbas: All Palestinian “refugees” in Gaza should “return to their cities” in Israel
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas: "Today, 2.3 million Palestinians live in the Gaza Strip, of whom 1.5 million are refugees who sought refuge after they were expelled from their lands in 1948, during which they were subjected to more than 50 massacres by the Zionist terrorist gangs. If the Americans want a solution (i.e., the 2025 Trump plan for Gaza) – the only place they [the refugees] need to return to is their cities and villages from which they were expelled during the Nakba (i.e., "the catastrophe," the establishment of Israel), to implement UN Resolution 194… He [US President Trump] who thinks he has the power to impose a new deal of the century (i.e., Trump's Middle East peace plan) or to exile our people and take control of any inch of our land is deceiving himself."
