Kushner’s Gaza skyline plan collides with a mountain of rubble

TL;DR Summary
At Davos, Jared Kushner pitched a rapid Gaza reconstruction centered on new skyscrapers and coastal development, but the UN warns Gaza sits atop more than 60 million tons of rubble and will take years to clear, with demining and security hurdles likely to deter investment. The Board of Peace envisions phased rebuilding overseen by NCAG and a handover to a reformed Palestinian Authority, but Israel and Hamas remain obstacles and an estimated $70 billion in funding is required to move forward.
