Activists have vandalized the US presidents Turnberry resort in protest of his plans to relocate Palestinians from the enclave

Pro-Palestinian activists have vandalized US President Donald Trump's Turnberry golf resort in Scotland in response to his proposal to relocate Palestinians from Gaza and transform the area into a tourist destination.

Palestine Action, the group behind the protest, said on Saturday that the action was "in response to the American administration's plans and threats to destroy, ethnically cleanse, and 'take over' the Palestinian Gaza Strip."

Videos shared by the activists show "GAZA IS NOT FOR SALE" painted in large white letters on the greens, with several holes dug up.

"Whilst Trump attempts to treat Gaza as his property, he should know his own property is within reach," the group wrote on X.

Another post included images of slogans such as "Free Gaza" painted in red on the clubhouse. The group claimed the golf course was fully shut down following the action.

A representative for Trump Turnberry condemned the incident as a "childish, criminal act" and insisted that it would not disrupt operations.

Scottish police confirmed that an investigation is underway.

Trump floated the idea of relocating Gaza's population and redeveloping the area in February. His plan to transform the enclave into a luxury tourist destination, to be known as the "Riviera of the Middle East," involves moving more than 2 million Palestinians to neighboring Arab countries. He previously shared an AI-generated video promoting "Trump Gaza," which depicts a resort featuring himself alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and tech billionaire Elon Musk.

The proposal was widely condemned by Palestinian leaders. Arab nations warned it would "put oil on the fire in the region."

Gaza has suffered extensive destruction following the Israeli military operation launched after the Hamas surprise attack on October 7, in which around 1,200 Israelis were killed and 250 were taken hostage. More than 48,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed since then, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, with around 70% of the buildings in northern Gaza damaged or destroyed, rendering large parts of the territory uninhabitable.
