Reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, at an estimated cost of over $70 billion, is set to begin soon under the framework of the US-established 'Gaza Board of Peace', according to a report by journalist Daniel Amram. The report notes the decision was made by Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump, even as Hamas still controls the Strip, and while large parts of the Gaza border area remain abandoned since October 7 and thousands of evacuees have yet to return home.
According to a report by journalist Daniel Amram published Tuesday evening, the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip is expected to begin soon under the auspices of the US-established 'Gaza Board of Peace', with the decision attributed to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Donald Trump. The report estimates the cost at over $70 billion.
The reconstruction would take place even as Hamas remains in effective control of the Strip, the report notes, and while large swaths of the Gaza border area within Israel remain abandoned since the October 7, 2023 massacre, a hospital in the south has yet to be fully renovated since a previous Iranian attack, and thousands of evacuees from Israeli communities near Gaza have not yet returned to their homes.
The 'Gaza Board of Peace' was unveiled by President Trump as a framework for post-war governance and rebuilding. As The Zioneer has previously reported (BACKGROUND items from June 17–29), the Board has been finalizing governance plans, holding summits, and working on a timeline, though disarmament negotiations with Hamas have stalled. The report does not specify a start date or the source of the $70 billion funding.
