Outraged Palestinians condemned President Donald Trump's claim the U.S. would seek ownership of the Gaza Strip.

Outraged Palestinians condemned President Donald Trump's claim the United States would seek ownership of the Gaza Strip and they would have no choice but to leave their homes in the war-torn enclave. 

In Gaza's southern city of Khan Younis, Narmin Nour El Din, 29, told an NBC News crew that all Palestinians would reject Trump's suggestions.

“All the Palestinians refuse the idea and we will be insistent on our land,” she said, standing outside a tent encampment.

Others like Hussein Abdel Jawad, 25, said they feared Trump’s plan would succeed and he felt clear that Trump had “business” ambitions for the enclave.
