Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip have held a rally following the Friday prayer to voice their opposition to US President Donald Trump’s so-called deal of the century.

The big event was organized by Palestinian Islamic resistance movement, Hamas.

On January 28th, Donald Trump, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by his side, unveiled the outlines of his scheme at the White House.

Hamas movement says Palestinians will never accept Trump’s dictates.

The so-called deal of the century allows the Israeli regime to annex settlements in the occupied West Bank, and the Jordan Valley. It would also deprive Palestinian refugees from their right of return.

During the declaration of his deal, Trump further enraged Palestinians by granting the Israeli regime exclusive control over Jerusalem al-Quds.

Angry protesters also slammed the rush by some Arab states to support Trump’s move.

Palestinians have described Donald Trump’s vision for peace as the theft of the century among other names, vowing to fight it to the death.

Experts say Trump’s sugar-coated deal with the illusion of economic prosperity will never force Palestinians to surrender.

Protesters say the so-called deal of the century will never succeed. They accuse Donald Trump of declaring war against Palestinians.
