US & GLOBAL: There have been discussions and proposals regarding the support for Palestinian refugees, but as of the latest available information, there is no official plan being implemented by the U.S. government for relocating Palestinian refugees to the U.S.

The U.S. has announced additional humanitarian assistance to support Palestinian civilians in Gaza, the West Bank, and the region, with a total assistance amounting to more than $674 million over the past eight months
This aid is intended to provide essential support, including food, safe drinking water, health care, and education
Recently, the Biden administration has restored aid to Palestinians, with a significant portion going to the UN's agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA
There have been reports of U.S. officials weighing proposals, including using the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program to resettle Palestinians who have escaped to Egypt from Gaza, but such plans could face challenges, as the Egyptian government has reportedly refused to accept a large number of refugees.
