This week, when Donald Trump described Gaza as a “ethnic cleansing” of Palestinians from Gaza, he rebuilt it as an American “Roira”. The construction will be done.
The fact is, for all promises of coastal belt restoration after the previous conflict, reconstruction – when it has happened – has been very partly and always subordinate to Israel’s demands.
One of the most surprising cases was that the Gaza war was the result of 2014, when there was a complex system to monitor the distribution of content for the reconstruction of the strip.
Following Israel’s objection that Hamas will send concrete, steel and other resources to the tunnel building, the UN monitoring process is known as the Gaza Reconstruction Procedure.
Reviewer plans and contractors will present themselves in monitoring warehouses. Checked the papers and IDs, they can take what was allocated.
Extremely complicated, low -resource and eventually set up for failure, GRM never worked properly. Instead, it allowed a hidden market to emerge quickly, sometimes at many doors of safe warehouses where deals for cement bags will be made.
All this explains many complexities facing Gaza’s reconstruction. This is not just a physical problem, though it is to work. This is also a political issue.
As experts have noted that the experience of reconstruction of the past in Gaza, and the veto of Israel, as a noted by the experts, used as a vehicle to maintain domination and ultimately to maintain conflicts Has been done
The ban on building goods entering the Gaza Strip has been a feature of Israel’s blockade since it was placed in 2007. Hundreds of goods, from drilling equipment and epoxy to concrete molds, asphalt and wiring, have been designated as dual use. .
This time, the work, and the needs of the Palestinians, will be almost huge.
In the first example, the debris is a question. According to an estimated UN Habitate and the UN Environmental Program, Gaza had 50 meters tonnes of debris and debris in December, 17 times higher than all the debris created by other hostilities since 2008.
The debris, if deposited in one place, would have paid a distance of five square kilometers. UNEP estimates that it will take 20 years to dispose of it and cost $ 909 million ($ 730 million).
After the previous conflict, Palestinians in Gaza relied heavily on concrete debris recycling, while operating on sites in the open areas, a bone of conflict because Israel has said that Hamas reaches military purposes. Cycle has taken advantage of concrete.
How much time can it take to rebuild another problem. Although some experts have suggested decades, the fact is that it depends on political conditions.
After World War II, German cities – with the benefit of the martial plan – it was restructured in almost a decade, though some reconstruction continued until the 1990s.
A quarter of all the structures in Gaza were destroyed or severely damaged – including schools and hospitals – and 66 % of buildings maintain at least some damage, the first issue must be reviewed to see what the longer was saved. Will be identified and potentially identified as 1 million people. Term asylum and help.
Placing Palestinians by Palestinians to Permanently Gaza, a threat to rebuilding – experienced in London’s East End after Bullets – is the social loss with close social networks Can be transferred to communities.
During the Syrian civil war, Jordanian refugee camps were deployed to a successful UN innovation mobile hideouts, which were allowed to take place to protect communities and social structures.
However, in many ways accommodation cannot be the most serious problem. Gaza’s water and cleaning system – has already fallen on the brink of failure even before the beginning of the war. It is estimated that 70 % of water, sanitation and hygiene facilities are damaged in northern Gaza.
In the city of Gaza, the damage to these facilities is more than 90 %, including the coastal belt in the coastal belt, where residential relys on electric pumps to supply roof tanks and where the power system is bad too. Damage
Beyond physical infrastructure, there is less clear, damage. More than half of Gaza’s most important agricultural land has been reduced due to dispute and 95 % of livestock have been slaughtered with about half the sheep.
This shows that something like a martial plan will be necessary, though almost certainly without the involvement of the Trump administration, which has indicated that it will not pay its development agency and will injure USAID. –
All of them raise a number of questions, including that Hamas still has a procedure to allow Gaza, to allow Israel and Trump to allow the White House to rebuild large -scale. Only this will end the Palestinian dream dream in Gaza.
