The UN has announced the cost of Gaza's reconstruction
World
At least $53.2 billion will be needed in the next 10 years to restore damaged infrastructure in the Gaza Strip and on the West Bank. According to the UN, the damage from the fighting has reached an enormous level, and the humanitarian situation remains critical. The organization stated its readiness to support the restoration process and continue providing assistance to the Palestinians.
The UN Humanitarian Coordinator for the occupied Palestinian territories, Muhannad Hadi, presented an interim report on the damage to the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. According to him, infrastructure damage is estimated at $29.9 billion, and economic and social losses amount to $19.1 billion. An additional $4 billion will be required to restore basic services.
The UN and its partners continue to deliver humanitarian aid. Since the ceasefire, more than 57 thousand tons of food, as well as 550 tons of livestock feed, have been delivered to Gaza. Three desalination plants have been restored in Khan Yunus, providing drinking water to 76,000 people.
In northern Gaza, the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Middle East has distributed around 2,500 tents over the past two days. About 200 thousand people receive medical care weekly, and laboratories continue to monitor the water quality.
The UN emphasizes that restoring the region will require not only substantial financial investment but also international coordination to ensure long-term stability and access to vital resources.
