- Story Text: Palestinians clashed with Israeli army in Bethlehem on Wednesday (January 29) over U.S. President Donald Trump's plan.
No injuries were reported.
Trump's proposal to create a Palestinian state as part of a Middle East peace plan drew Palestinian condemnation for imposing strict conditions, and praise from Israelis for allowing Israel to maintain control of long-contested West Bank settlements.
Trump set in motion a four-year timeline for Palestinians to agree to a security arrangement with Israel, halt attacks by the Islamist militant group Hamas and set up governing institutions in order to establish a Palestinian state with its capital in Abu Dis, a part of East Jerusalem.
That too poses a potential problem for Palestinians.
