9:31 am
into the riviera of the middle east. of the middle east. bbc verify�*s nick eardley has spoken to international law experts to understand if the us has the authority to do so. can president trump really take ownership of gaza and turn it into the riviera of the middle east? the us will take over the gaza strip and we will do a job with it. we will own it. this is the area we're talking about, the gaza strip on the mediterranean. it's around 25 miles long and roughly six miles wide. around two million palestinians live there, most of whom have hamas and israel. a huge amount of damage has been done to infrastructure over the past 15 months too. but could gaza end up under us ownership as part of a reconstruction plan? the short answer is the experts we spoke to think such a plan would involve clear violations of international law. firstly, under article 2.4 of the un charter, the use of force is illegal. members agree to refrain
9:32 am
in international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state. the idea that this would benefit the population of gaza or another population is legally completely meaningless. it is simply prohibited to use military force on the territory of another state, particularly in order to conquer or annex that territory. it's hard to see a situation in which president trump could get agreement from leaders in gaza. the strip is run by hamas, an armed group designated a terrorist organisation by a number of countries including the us and uk. hamas has made it clear it won't agree to a takeover, calling the plan ridiculous and absurd. the idea of us ownership has been strongly rejected by the palestinian authority which governs part of the occupied west bank. israel can't make the decision to seek territory in gaza according to legal experts, who say it has no right to do so as an occupying power.
9:33 am
we don't have many details about the specifics of trump's proposal, but this is what he said about moving residents out of gaza. i think that if we can resettle, and i believe we can do it in areas where the leaders currently say no. the geneva convention, a set of international laws, prohibit forced permanent displacement. here's article 49. it says individual or mass forceable transfers as well as deportations of protected persons from occupied territory are prohibited, regardless of their motive. it's a violation of rules which have been created by states. and it is a violation of international agreements

it would need the backing of the international community. of the us�*s eu and western allies instead back a two—state that was previously verify�*s nick eardley. reports in sweden say that several weapons, believed to be rifles, have been found at an adult education centre in sweden where a gunman killed ten swedish police say they have still not established a motive for the attack which took place on tuesday. let's speak to kasia madera who is in orebro for us. bring us up—to—date. bring us up-to-date. swedish olice bring us up-to-date. swedish police have — bring us up-to-date. swedish police have just _ bring us up-to-date. swedish police have just been - bring us up-to-date. swedish police have just been giving i bring us up-to-date. swedish police have just been giving a | press briefing in the building me and we are getting
