More than 50 billion US dollars were to be renewed with devastated gauze strips: a joint report of the World Bank

More than $ 50 billion will have to renovate Gaza after Israeli has leveled a 15-month campaign against Hamas, according to a joint report published on Tuesday by the United Nations, the European Union and the World Bank.

AND Temporary fast damage and assessment of the need (Irdna) estimated that it takes $ 53.2 billion to recover and renovate in the next 10 years, and $ 20 billion is required in the first three years to recover and renovate.

Israeli devastating military campaign in Gaza was launched in response to an attack under the guidance of Hamas on October 7, 2023, in which 1,200 people were killed and more than 250 was taken hostage, according to the Talties Israeli. The Israeli Subsequent Operation killed more than 48,000 people, according to Gaza healthcare officials, displaced 1.9 million people and left the enclave in the ruins.

It will take years to clean millions of tons of rubble, remove non -exploded bombs and restore infrastructure and economy in the region.

The report, published in the midst of a fragile truck that began last month, warned that the conditions were not yet established to start a great recovery and renewal of work, given the lack of clarity about how the enclave would be launched after the war.

“The speed, the scale and scope of recovery will be shaped by these conditions,” the report said.

Housing and infrastructure

Irdn said that more than 292,000 homes were destroyed or damaged, and 95 percent of hospitals were not dysfunctional, while the local economy infected by 83 percent.

Damage to buildings and other infrastructure is estimated at $ 29.9 billion, with 53 percent of all damage to residential accommodation. The damage is 1.8 times higher than the annual gross domestic product of the West Coast and Gaza, the report states.

More than half of the total estimated renovation costs should be repaired by the buildings, and the housing alone required about $ 15.2 billion, the report said.

The enclave suffered another 19.1 billion US dollars in social and economic losses, including the health, education, trade and industry sectors relaxed in the conflict, it was stated.

“The need for recovery and renewal established in this report are enormous,” the report said. “Financing will require a wide coalition of donors, diverse financing instruments, private sector resources and significant improvements in delivery of gauze renewal materials after the conflict.”

On Tuesday, some construction equipment is also allowed in Gaza through the transition of Rafah, key to the progression of cleaning.

Mobile houses for Gazani whose homes were destroyed and have no shelter in the winter time also sat on trucks on Tuesday, ready to enter the enclave. The Israeli official said Israel would begin to allow them to be brought to Gaza.

Hamas accused Israel of delaying the delivery of these mobile homes and threatened to delay the plates of hostages until the issue was resolved.

Damage assessments

After the accommodation, the sector that suffered the most damage was trade and industry to 20 percent, which was estimated at $ 5.9 billion in total, followed by damage to $ 2.5 billion. Five percent of all damage were water services, sanitary and hydration, adding about $ 1.53 billion.

The report assessed a toll of damage based on data from October 2023 to October 2024, which means that the right cost could be higher.

The first recovery priority, the report states, will be social services such as health and education and basic services in the water sector, telecommunications and energy.

As the ruin is removed, it will take care of special care while the bodies come out under the destroyed houses and buildings, the report is added. Palestinian health authorities estimate that up to 10,000 people were buried under debris in Gaza.

Gaza economy will also need to be renewed – the contribution of the endlands to the entire Palestinian economy has decreased to three percent in 2024, it is estimated in the report, despite the fact that Gaza’s belt was 40 percent of Palestinian population in Palestinian territories.

Because future enclave management is still unclear, it is unknown how the renovation will take place.

The report comes shortly after US President Donald Trump told his intention to now take over Gaza and expel his people, leaving them not to return. The scheme has caused condemnation from legal experts and Palestinians, and has declared the international community unlawful.

The assessment was carried out in coordination with the Palestinian administration, which oversees the occupied West Coast. He also studied crossing effects on the west coast between October 2023 and October 2024, and found that the West Coast had suffered increased violence during this time period in the form of immigrants’ violence and increased the Israeli military incurs into a residential area.

The damage to the western coast was estimated at about $ 16 million, while damage to the west coast was $ 14.6 million.
