'A long, long road ahead': Gaza rebuilds from zero

Thousands of Gazans have returned from the 15-month war-ravaged Gaza Strip .

Some 700,000 people fled from Gaza City and surrounding areas during the early weeks of the war.

The UN estimates 70% of the Gaza Strip's buildings have been damaged or destroyed since October 2023 .

People who have managed to stay in the north throughout the war fear that pressure for accommodation, already acute, will get worse as civilians return.

"I think for the first few months , they will see what will happen," journalist Ghada el-Kurd says. "If they lost everything and the reconstruction process is delayed, I think people will not stay in Gaza ." Around 150,000 people have already left since the war began in October 2023 . Ghada says she expects others who can afford it to follow, seeking futures in the Arab world or beyond, while the poorest and most vulnerable are left behind. "I agree with Trump that people deserve a better life," she says. "But why not in Gaza ?".
