U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said Israel has no plan to force Palestinians out of Gaza against their will. Speaking to reporters during a visit with Palestinian-Americans in the West Bank, Huckabee said he could state categorically that no such forced displacement was planned. The statement addressed proposals from Israeli ministers concerning Gaza’s roughly two million residents and their future in the territory. Huckabee made the remarks on Saturday during the West Bank visit, although the available report did not identify the town or provide an exact time.
