South Sudan denies they are in talks with Israel to resettle Palestinians

South Sudan’s foreign ministry has denied they are in talks with Israel to resettle Palestinians from Gaza in the country.

“These claims are baseless and do not reflect the official position or policy of the Government of the Republic of South Sudan,” the foreign affairs ministry said in a statement.

The Associated Press reported on Tuesday that Israel was holding discussions with South Sudan to resettle Palestinians in the war-torn East African country, according to six people they had spoken to for the news report.
