Gaza Needs $71B for Recovery, Aid Blocked
Description
Gazas Devastation: A Staggering $71 Billion Needed for Reconstruction
The European Union and United Nations report reveals the colossal task of rebuilding Gaza, with a staggering $71 billion needed over the next decade. Housing, health, education, commerce, and agriculture have been severely impacted, setting human development back 77 years. Over 1.2 million Palestinians remain displaced, living in tents with inadequate sanitation, leading to health issues and trauma. More than 700,000 children have missed two years of formal education, facing malnutrition and losses like 58,000 orphans. The reconstruction costs are immense, including $16 billion for housing and clearing 7,000 tons of unexploded bombs. Aid groups highlight Israels blockade of key materials and the need for a solid ceasefire, secure aid access, and a path for the Palestinian Authority to govern Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem.
