Dan Mitchinson: US correspondent on Donald Trump's bid to 'take over' Gaza - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Donald Trump's suggested Palestinians should leave Gaza for Jordan and Egypt - and the US will take over and redevelop the land.

Saudi Arabia says a Palestinian state is needed, and Hamas has labelled the plan a recipe for chaos. 

US correspondent Dan Mitchinson says Trump's plan lacks a lot of clarity - and suggested the US leader was throwing ideas at the wall to see what stuck.
