Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Mustafa has unveiled a comprehensive five-year plan for Gaza’s reconstruction, outlining a $65 billion strategy to rebuild the war-torn territory and restore unified governance under the Palestinian Authority (PA).
Speaking at a meeting with UN and diplomatic officials in Ramallah on Thursday, Mustafa said the plan will unfold over three phases and cover 18 sectors, including housing, education, and governance. He expressed hope that within 12 months, the PA would be fully operational in Gaza.
The plan builds on agreements made at the Arab summit in Cairo in March 2025 and includes police training programs in partnership with Egypt and Jordan. Mustafa said ongoing discussions with the European Union focus on secure border operations, customs systems, and integrated policing units.
The PA has not governed Gaza since Hamas seized control in 2007 but continues to provide limited services in the territory. The reconstruction blueprint aims to reunify Gaza and the West Bank under a single Palestinian administration and establish a credible governance framework for the state of Palestine.
Meanwhile, International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva welcomed the recent Gaza ceasefire, calling it a relief for all affected. She said sustained peace would benefit the broader region, including economies such as Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, and noted that “there will be a peace dividend for everybody.”
