“This plan falls in (U.S President Donald) Trump and Israel’s favour, they have interests in Gaza, they want to end Gaza in any way possible, (there's) gas in Gaza, they want to turn (Gaza) into Trump resorts, and he (Trump) wants to finish his plan. And all these complications are from Trump and (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu, and if they wanted to solve (the war), they would’ve solved it a long time ago. We are the victims here, the whole world is watching us today as we get slaughtered, no one is standing with us and all this is in favour of the Jews (Israelis) and the whole world today are serving Israel.”

“(U.S President Donald) Trump promised yesterday that there will be peace, he said that there will be peace and the hostages will be released. But we as Palestinian citizens - where are we in this equation, who is going solve our situation? Who is going to save us from these Zionist crimes? Who is going to save us?"

"The plan that they talked about yesterday abolishes the Palestinian state which was recognised by many countries, and this is a new colonialism with a new approach and abolishes the capital of Palestine - Jerusalem. All the principles for the liberation of Palestine were cancelled yesterday. For me, this is a new colonialism."

Israelis in Jerusalem were positive about Trump's plan for Gaza, saying this deal is one the state of Israel can live with. (9141-ISRAEL-PALESTINIANS/GAZA-PLAN-JERUSALEM-REAX)

"Great day for Israel. I don't see anyone from right to left who's going to go against it. The only question is now if Hamas will approve and end this misery that we were in it for almost two years."

Netanyahu described his visit to the United States as “excellent” and “historic”, where he spoke at the United Nations headquarters in New York and held a meeting with Trump in Washington, D.C. (9097-ISRAEL-PALESTINIANS/NETANYAHU)

15. (SOUNDBITE) (Hebrew) ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER, BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, SAYING:

“It was an excellent visit. Both the beginning at the UN and the end in Washington. This is my fourth visit to Washington. When President Trump was elected. This is a historic visit. Instead of Hamas isolating us, we turned things around and isolated Hamas. Now the whole world, including the Arab world and the Muslim world are putting pressure on Hamas to accept the conditions we set together with President Trump, to release all our hostages, both the living and the dead. When the IDF remains in most of the Strip, who would believe that? They keep saying, 'You must accept Hamas’ conditions. Take them all out. The IDF needs to get out and Hamas can recover and can even rehabilitate the strip' by no means. It’s not happening. On the contrary. And President Trump added that if Hamas will refuse, he will give all the backing to Israel. Complete the military operation to eliminate Hamas. And so I think from every side it was an excellent visit."

"We welcome the peace plan for Gaza presented yesterday by President Trump.
