France 24 also reported on Trump's post.

The footage, which the 78-year-old shared without comment, shows the war-ravaged territory before a caption appears:

"Gaza 2025... What's Next?"

It then goes on to show the area transformed into a middle-eastern paradise with exotic beaches, Dubai-style skyscrapers, luxury yachts and people partying.

It includes a "Trump Gaza" tower and a gigantic, golden statue of the US president - with miniature versions on sale in a souvenir gift shop.

A child is also shown walking in a street, holding a huge, golden balloon of the president's head.

The video also features the world leader dancing with a scantily clad belly dancer in a bar - and sunbathing and sipping cocktails by a hotel resort pool with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Elon Musk appears in the footage several times - sitting on a beach eating humous with flatbreads as bearded belly dancers perform on the sand.

The billionaire boss of X, Tesla and SpaceX - who also leads the US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) which has been tasked with cutting government spending - is also shown throwing dollar bills in the air for people.

A song written for the video also plays in the background.

The lyrics go: "Donald's coming to set you free, bringing the light for all to see, no more tunnels, no more fear: Trump Gaza's finally here.

"Trump Gaza's shining bright, golden future, a brand new life.

"Feast and dance the deal is done, Trump Gaza number one."

Recall Trump announced his plan - for when the war between Hamas and Israel ends - earlier in 2025.

It includes relocating two million Gazans to neighbouring Arab countries and developing the territory into the "Riviera of the middle east".

He described Gaza as a "demolition site" where "virtually every building is down".

'Trump Gaza' video sparks outrage

Meanwhile, President Trump's video has left many Palestinians and some netizens outraged.

Legit.ng captures some reactions to the post.

Matthew Stadlen said:

"The Trump Gaza video is quite possibly the most disgusting, the most shameful, the most hideous public communication by a US President in living memory."

@1goodtern tweeted:

"If you're old and slow like me, then that Trump Gaza video goes too quick to absorb its full insanity.

"So I took a few screenshots for you to digest at leisure.

"This is something genuinely posted by 'the President of The United States Of America'."

Islamic scholar, Omar Suleiman, wrote on X:

"Trump and his Zionist cronies think marketing their ethnic cleansing and occupation of Gaza as “real estate development” will work.

"You really don’t understand what drives Palestinians do you?"

In the same vein, Rep. Juan Vargas (D-Calif.) said, as quoted by The Hills:

Rep. Greg Meeks, the senior Democrat on the house foreign affairs committee, fumed:

“It is absolutely ridiculous and insulting to me, and I think to anybody that understands history — that understands the complications of trying to get a true peace in the middle east.”
