The five-year plan would begin with clearing roads, followed by the creation of 200,000 temporary housing units and the restoration of damaged buildings. Later stages of the scheme envision building at least 400,000 permanent homes and the reopening of Gaza’s seaport and international airport.

Proposals also include Egypt and Jordan training Palestinian security forces, as well as the deployment of international peacekeepers.

It is estimated the plan will cost $53 billion, to be partly funded by a variety of international sources, including the UN, as well as foreign and private sector investments, reported Al Jazeera.

    I bet the US tax payers will fund the reconstruction, which is only appropriate since they US government contributed so much to the destruction. Unfortunately I have a strong suspicion that some sort of Trump related property development organization will be getting all the contracts.
