It is time to present “other options for the people of Gaza,” Danny Danon, Israel’s permanent representative to the United Nations, has said.
Speaking on The World with Yalda Hakim, Danon stated “many leaders around the world” speak on the behalf of Palestinians, but “never came up with real solutions”.
“I think many of the people in Gaza, if they get the offer to go to other places and start a new life, I think many of them would choose that option,” he said.
“It’s about time to think about real solutions, about new out-of-the-box ideas,” he added.
Speaking on what the future of Gaza holds, Danon said Israel has “no intention” to stay in Gaza.
“We went back into Gaza because we had no choice after 7 October,” he explained.
“We have the hostages still held in captivity, but for the future of Gaza, I think it is time to think about other options.
“Hamas will not stay there, and I think we should welcome the involvement of more countries to take real actions for the future of Gaza.”
