Context:

The Organisation for Islamic Cooperation (OIC) adopted an Arab League counter-proposal to U.S. President Donald Trump’s controversial plan to take over Gaza and displace its residents.
This move came three days after the Arab League ratified the Egyptian-crafted counterproposal at a summit in Cairo.

Details of the Egyptian-Crafted Plan:

The Egyptian counterproposal aims to rebuild the Gaza Strip under the future administration of the Palestinian Authority, as opposed to Trump’s controversial plan to “take over” Gaza.
Trump’s proposal, which involved displacing Palestinian residents to Egypt or Jordan and transforming Gaza into a tourist hub, was widely condemned.
The OIC’s endorsement of the Egyptian proposal calls on the international community to support the reconstruction efforts for Gaza.
Despite the OIC’s endorsement, the Egyptian plan has faced opposition from both the United States and Israel.

Organisation for Islamic Cooperation (OIC):

The Organisation for Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is the second largest intergovernmental organization after the United Nations with a membership of 57 states.
It is the collective voice of the Muslim world. It endeavours to safeguard and protect the interests of the Muslim world in the spirit of promoting international peace and harmony among various people of the world.
It was established upon a decision of the historical summit which took place in Rabat, Kingdom of Morocco on the 25th of September 1969.
Headquarters: Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
India is not a member of the OIC.

Arab League:

The Arab League is a union of Arabic-speaking African and Asian countries.
It was formed in Cairo in 1945to promote the independence, sovereignty, affairs, and interests of its member countries and observers.
The organization began with seven founding members: Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Syria, and now comprises 22 different member nations and four observer states.
The League is bound by a charter and has a council in place to ensure that its goals are met.
Each member state has one vote in the Council of the Arab League, and decisions are binding only for those states that have voted for them.
