The United States-backed Board of Peace has proposed a $2.4 billion plan to start the reconstruction of Gaza, despite ongoing Israeli attacks that have killed seven Palestinians recently. The plan was presented at a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly and includes 66 projects aimed at rebuilding after recent damages. However, the initiative hinges on Hamas's disarmament, which has not been fully realized yet, according to Nikolay Mladenov, the Board of Peace’s high representative.

Story summary
On September 23, 2026, the U.S.-backed Board of Peace unveiled a $2.45 billion six-month recovery plan for Gaza at the UN General Assembly in New York. The plan includes 66 projects, focusing on rebuilding infrastructure, restoring essential services, reviving the economy, and establishing post-war governance. Despite the ambitious goals, implementation hinges on cooperation from both Israel and Hamas. Security-related projects alone account for roughly $885 million, including a permanent site in Rafah capable of supporting 5,000 personnel from an International Stabilization Force and funds to recruit and deploy a multinational security contingent. The total cost of full reconstruction is estimated at $35.2 billion over the medium term and another $71.4 billion over the next decade.
