A sustainable recovery process must restore hope, dignity, and livelihoods for the two million people in Gaza,\u201d said Muhannad Hadi, UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. The assessment estimates that $29.9 billion is required to repair physical infrastructure, while $19.1 billion is needed to address economic and social losses.<\/p>\n<p>Housing remains the most severely affected sector, accounting for the largest share of recovery needs, with $15.2 billion \u2013 or 30 percent of the total cost \u2013 earmarked for rebuilding homes. Over the next three years alone, $20 billion will be required to stabilise essential services and lay the foundation for long-term recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Hadi reaffirmed the UN\u2019s continued support, stating: \u201cThe UN stands ready to support the Palestinian people both on humanitarian assistance and a future recovery and reconstruction process.\u201d \u201cOnce conditions are in place, temporary shelters will be established, basic services restored, the economy kick-started, and individual and social rehabilitation begun while the longer-term recovery and reconstruction advances,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>A crucial element of Gaza\u2019s recovery will be restoring the administrative authority of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in the Strip. \u201cThe international community must make collective efforts to support a just and lasting peace,\u201d said Mr. Hadi, emphasising that Gaza is an integral part of this effort based on UN resolutions and international law, with Jerusalem as the capital of both States.<\/p>\n<p>In East Jerusalem, Philippe Lazzarini, Commissioner-General of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), reported that Israeli forces accompanied by local authorities forcibly entered the UNRWA Kalandia Training Centre, ordering its immediate evacuation. At least 350 students and 30 staff were present at the time. Tear gas and sound bombs were deployed during the incident. Earlier on Tuesday morning, Israeli police officers, accompanied by municipal staff, also visited several UNRWA schools in East Jerusalem, demanding their closure.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2025\/02\/1160256\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2025\/02\/1160256\">The UN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/world-news-in-brief-53-2-billion-needed-for-palestinian-recovery-un-condemns-unrwa-schools-raid-lebanon-israel-tensions-continue\/\">World News in Brief: $53.2 billion needed for Palestinian recovery, UN condemns UNRWA schools raid, Lebanon-Israel tensions continue<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[606,607,608],"class_list":["post-137603","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137603"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137603\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
