Palestinian leader Mahmud Abbas has cut all ties with Israel and the US following Donald Trump's long-awaited Middle East peace 'vision'. Trump's 'two-state solution' involves a tunnel linking the West Bank to the Gaza Strip. Abbas said Israel will have to 'bear responsibility as an occupying power' for the Palestinian territories at an emergency Arab League meeting in Cairo. However, it would require them to accept conditions they have been previously unwilling to consider, such as accepting West Bank settlements. Israel captured the eastern part of the city along with the West Bank and Gaza in a 1967 war.
