Israel's prime minister has said he is working to make US President Donald Trump's plan to remove and resettle Gaza's population "a reality". Benjamin Netanyahu said he was co-operating with the US on a "common strategy" for the Palestinian territory after a meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Jerusalem on Gaza and removal of the two million Palestinians there to neighbouring countries. The UN has warned that any forced displacement of civilians from occupied territory is strictly prohibited under international law and "tantamount to ethnic cleansing". Phemelo unpacks this and more with Director of Research at Auwal Socio- economic Research Institute, Angelo Fick.
