US envoy calls Egypt-led Gaza plan 'good-faith first step'

A U.S. envoy on Thursday praised Egypt for coming up with a new plan on Gaza, without endorsing details of the proposed alternative to Trump's calls to displace Palestinians en masse.

"We need more discussion about it, but it's a good-faith first step from the Egyptians," Steve Witkoff, Trump's Middle East pointman, told reporters.
