About this episode

President Donald Trump says the U.S. would take over war-ravaged Gaza and create a "Riviera of the Middle East" after resettling Palestinians elsewhere - a proposal rejected by many Gazans returning home and by regional power Saudi Arabia. El Salvador has offered to house in its jails "dangerous criminals" from anywhere in the world deported by the United States. Plus, a shooting at an adult education center in Sweden leaves at least 11 people dead.
