The rejection of Trump’s peace plan by Islamic Jihad highlights deep divisions in Palestinian politics and skepticism about US-led solutions.

Public opinion in Gaza reflects distrust, with many fearing the plan may escalate tensions rather than bring peace. This reaction signals challenges ahead for any diplomatic efforts to resolve the ongoing conflict.
