US President Donald Trump expressed doubts about whether the fragile ceasefire in Gaza will hold in comments to the press following his inauguration in Washington on Monday.

Asked by a reporter about whether the two sides would maintain the truce, he said "I'm not confident".

"That's not our war; it's their war. But I'm not confident," Trump said. Trump said the densely-populated Palestinian enclave looked like "a massive demolition site" and that it had to be rebuilt in a different way.
