Israel, US rejected Gaza Reconstruction Plan without displacement of residents

Israel and the United States have rejected a proposed plan for rebuilding Gaza, citing concerns over security and long-term governance. The initiative, backed by Arab and international leaders, aims to restore Gaza’s infrastructure without forcing the displacement of its residents.

Opposition to the Reconstruction Plan

🔹 Israel’s Stand – The Israeli government argues that rebuilding Gaza without removing “security threats” is unacceptable. Officials insist that any reconstruction must include demilitarization measures and a change in governance.

🔹 US Position – Washington has echoed Israel’s concerns, with White House officials stating that security guarantees must be a priority before funding any large-scale rebuilding efforts.

Arab and Global Push for Reconstruction

The proposed $53 billion plan, introduced by Arab nations, seeks to restore homes, hospitals, and essential infrastructure destroyed in the conflict. Supporters argue that displacing civilians violates international law and worsens the humanitarian crisis.

🔸 Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Qatar have called for an immediate ceasefire and reconstruction.
🔸 The UN and humanitarian agencies stress that millions in Gaza need urgent aid and shelter.
🔸 Palestinian leaders say Israel’s opposition is aimed at preventing Gaza’s economic and social recovery.
