At the World Economic Forum last week in Davos, Switzerland, Jared Kushner, a real estate developer and son-in-law of United States President Donald Trump, unveiled a master plan for post-war Gaza during a presentation. The plan, which was contrived without any consultation with Palestinians in Gaza, promises to rebuild Gaza from scratch and includes residential towers, data centres, seaside resorts, parks, sports facilities and an airport."
"There is no Plan B, said Kushner, as he unveiled the plan, accompanied by AI-generated images and a colour-coded map. But a closer analysis of the proposal reveals a stark reality ignored by the glossy renders: The plan necessitates the total erasure of Gaza's existing urban fabric. (Al Jazeera) The project forms part of Trump's push to advance the Gaza ceasefire, which Israel has violated on a daily basis, killing nearly 500 people since it came into effect."
