Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he wants to realize the US President Donald Trump's vision to relocate a large part of Gaza's population through what Netanyahu calls "voluntary migration".

Relocating Palestinians from Gaza to South Sudan would mean moving them from one war-torn country to another.

South Sudan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs dismisses the news agency AP's article and source information.

"These claims are baseless and do not reflect the government's official position or policy", it states in a government statement according to Sudan Tribune.

Palestinians, human rights groups and large parts of the international community reject the proposal to relocate Palestinians and say it goes against international law.
