  "account": "Donald Trump's Board of Peace is preparing to present a $2.45 billion six-month recovery plan for Gaza at a meeting on September 23. The proposal outlines a comprehensive roadmap for rebuilding the war-torn territory and establishing a new Palestinian administration. The 66-project plan covers various aspects, including temporary housing, debris removal, hospital rehabilitation, economic recovery, digital infrastructure, and the deployment of a multinational security force. Physical damage in Gaza is estimated at $35.2 billion, with full recovery and reconstruction potentially requiring $71.4 billion over the next decade. The largest share of the initial recovery package, about $1 billion, will be allocated to infrastructure. Other significant allocations include $400 million for temporary shelters, $275 million for rubble and unexploded ordnance removal, $50 million for hospital rehabilitation, and $30 million for repairing Gaza's damaged road network. Security-related projects will receive $885 million, with $275 million earmarked for a permanent hardened facility in Rafah to house up to 5,000 personnel from the International Stabilization Force. A $120 million portion of the plan will go towards mobilizing a Palestinian police force, which has already seen thousands of volunteers selected and vetted for training in Egypt. The plan also includes a $20 million weapons buy-back program and aims to restore Gaza's border crossings, electricity, and water infrastructure. The digital ID system, digital payments, and 4G connectivity are among the initiatives to support economic recovery. Although the proposal has not been fully funded, the Board of Peace and Palestinian technocratic government are confident in securing donor countries' contributions once political obstacles are addressed. Implementation will depend on cooperation between Israel and Hamas, including Hamas disarmament and the proposed ceasefire arrangements. The Board of Peace and Palestinian government emphasize that the recovery should be Palestinian-led and based on \"Palestinian ownership.\"",
  "summary": "The proposal, developed over about a year by members of the 28-country Board of Peace and the Palestinian technocratic government, covers infrastructure, housing, security, healthcare, education, digital services and economic development.",
