Arab leaders have officially approved a comprehensive reconstruction plan for Gaza, spearheaded by Egypt in collaboration with Palestine. The initiative, which has now become an official Arab League proposal, focuses on rebuilding Gaza without displacing its Palestinian population. The plan emphasizes long-term development and sustainability, with key components including clearing debris, restoring essential services, and securing international funding via a trust managed by the World Bank.
In addition to reconstruction efforts, the plan outlines a new political and security framework for Gaza, reinforcing its status as part of a future Palestinian state alongside the West Bank. Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit stressed that the plan not only addresses technical reconstruction needs but also aims to establish a stable political and security environment.
Furthermore, Egypt will organize an international conference, in cooperation with the United Nations, to gather global support for Gaza’s reconstruction. The Arab League has also urged the UN Security Council to consider deploying an international peacekeeping force in both Gaza and the West Bank to ensure regional stability.
