Egypt will not participate in the displacement of Palestinians, an "act of injustice" that would threaten Egyptian security, President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi said on Wednesday in his first public response to U.

Egypt cannot take part in the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi said, after his US counterpart Donald Trump suggested the war-torn territory’s inhabitants could be moved to Egypt and Jordan.

President Trump said he had spoken to Jordan’s leader and planned to call Egypt’s on Sunday. Most of Gaza’s two million residents have been displaced in 15 months of fighting.
