United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres will warn against “ethnic cleansing” in Gaza, his spokesman said, after US President Donald Trump suggested Palestinians could be removed from the coastal territory, AFP reports.

“The secretary-general will say that in the search for solutions, we must not make the problem worse. It is vital that we stay true to the bedrock of international law. It is essential to avoid any form of ethnic cleansing. And, of course, he will reaffirm the two state solution,” Guterres’s spokesman Stephane Dujarric told reporters.
