Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently addressed President Donald Trump's controversial remarks regarding Gaza, seeking to provide clarity on the proposed plan. Rubio stated that Trump's suggestion for the US to 'take over' Gaza was actually an offer for the US to oversee the reconstruction of the area. The intention behind this proposal, as explained by Rubio, was for the US to assist in clearing debris, removing unexploded munitions, and facilitating the rebuilding process.

During a news conference in Guatemala City, Rubio emphasized that while the reconstruction efforts took place, the current residents of Gaza would need to temporarily relocate for their safety. He highlighted the hazardous conditions in Gaza, including the presence of unexploded munitions and rubble, which posed risks to the inhabitants.
