Palestinian Authority Deputy Prime Minister Ziad Abu Amr says that the national unity government would be responsible for the daunting and lengthy task of rebuilding the Gaza Strip after the damage caused in Operation Protective Edge, Channel 2 reports.

“The Palestinian government will take responsibility for what will take place in the Strip and for the needs of its residents,” he said during a visit to the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.
