Gaza postwar reconstruction estimated at $20 billion, says UN trade body

[IsraelTimes] The damage from the conflict in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
so far amounts to around $20 billion, a UN trade body official says,

Does that include replacing hundreds of miles of tunnels?

Speaking on the sidelines of a UN meeting in Geneva, Richard Kozul-Wright, a director at trade body UNCTAD, said the damage was already four times that sustained in Gaza during the seven-week war in 2014.

"We are talking about around $20 billion if it stops now," he says.

Kozul-Wright said earlier that Gaza will need a new "Marshall Plan" to recover from the war, referring to the US plan for Europe’s economic recovery after World War II.

He says the $20 billion estimate is based on satellite images and other information and that a more precise estimate would require researchers to enter Gaza.

UNCTAD already said in a report last month that it could take until the closing years of the century for Gaza’s economy to regain its pre-conflict size if hostilities in the Paleostinian enclave were to cease immediately.

#3 Hey, those tunnels aren't gonna re-build themselves. Nor are those tunnels gonna re-stock themselves with missiles.
$20 billion seems low. :)

#7 Nah, new olive groves and other crops won't be that expensive. Once the infestation is cleared, the land can be put to productive use.

#8 5 and 7 are correct--no need to rebuild. A secured park or ag zone would be a better use for the space.
