Gaza will need largest post-war reconstruction effort since 1945, UN says

Al Jazeera  

The level of destruction in Gaza has not been since World War II, according to a United Nations official who estimated that post-war reconstruction could cost up to $50bn. “We have not seen anything like this since 1945,” Abdallah al-Dardari, director of the regional bureau for Arab states at the UN Development Programme, said on Thursday during an online news briefing. The overall cost of post-war reconstruction in Gaza would cost between $40-50bn “at least”, he said. On Thursday, US Department of State spokesperson Matthew Miller said Israel should prevent attacks on aid convoys bound for Gaza after Israeli protesters assaulted two Jordanian aid trucks on their way to Gaza.
