US President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace will unveil a six-month, $2.45 billion recovery plan for Gaza at a meeting of its members on Wednesday, a Board of Peace official tells The Times of Israel.
The Times of Israel first revealed the plan last week, and it has since been trimmed down from 71 to 66 projects.
The projects’ realization would still provide massive relief for Gazans by repairing roads, homes, schools, mosques, hospitals, ports and crossings; expanding fuel and food deliveries; upgrading internet and cellular connectivity; reviving the judicial system and a Palestinian airline; establishing warehouse and logistics hubs, a Gaza tech park, a new digital payment system, a center for alternative disputes and a community radio channel.
There are also projects aimed at disarming Hamas, including the clearance of tunnels, a weapons buy-back program, mobilizing the International Stabilization Force and training a new Gaza police force.
The recovery plan will be unveiled during a briefing that the Board of Peace is hosting on the UN General Assembly sidelines, whose existence was first reported by The Times of Israel last week.
