Steve Witkoff, an American special envoy in the Middle East, said Gaza would be “uninhabited” for at least 10 to 15 years, because talks about the reconstruction continued due to fragile agreement on the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
“I think everyone wants to see peace in the region,” Witkoff said in an interview on Tuesday about Hannity.
“And peace in the region means a better life to the Palestinians. The better life is not necessarily tied to physical space Yes you are today. Better life speaks of better opportunities, better financial conditions, better aspirations for you and your family. This is not happening because you will need to have a tent in the Gaza band and are surrounded by 30,000 ammunition that could be extinguished at any time. This is a dangerous place to live today. “
