Arab leaders are meeting in Cairo to discuss an alternative to Donald Trump's plan to assume control of Gaza and displace its Palestinian population. The plan has been widely condemned by Palestinians, the Arab world, and many of Israel and the United States' partners. The cost of Gaza's reconstruction is estimated to be over $53 billion. The summit will focus on a plan to rebuild the territory without displacing its people. The Gaza Strip has been under a blockade since 2007 and is often likened to an open-air prison. The summit is taking place as Israel and Hamas are at an impasse over a ceasefire agreement.
