President Donald Trump’s suggestion that Egypt and Jordan take in Palestinians from the war-ravaged Gaza Strip is being met with a hard “no” from the two U.S. allies.

Palestinian refugees are being allowed to reenter areas of Gaza amid a ceasefire between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas as White House officials are considering a plan to move them somewhere safer.

President Trump said he had spoken to Jordan’s leader and planned to call Egypt’s. Mr. Trump’s suggestion echoes proposals from far-right Israelis. A Hamas official rejected the idea.
