Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz has ordered his country’s army to prepare a plan allowing for the “voluntary departure of Gaza’s population”, Haaretz reports.

The order comes after US President Donald Trump’s remarks on Tuesday, which expressed strong support for the mass expulsion of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip to Egypt and Jordan.

Cattle cars, obviously.

A referendum? Oh, they have a chance to show democracy!

If they want to be voluntarily departed.
