The UNDP has reported that the estimated cost of reconstructing Gaza has now doubled from earlier projections made in January.

A UN assessment has found that it would take a fleet of over one hundred lorries 15 years to clear nearly 40 million tonnes of rubble from Gaza , with the operation costing between $500 million and $600 million.

Published last month by the UN Environment Programme, the assessment revealed that 137,297 buildings in Gaza were damaged, accounting for more than half of the total buildings in the area. Of these, over a quarter were completely destroyed, about 10% were severely damaged, and a third were moderately damaged.
