Trump's 'Board of Peace' group announced a $2.45 billion Gaza recovery plan during a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York. The announcement marks a significant financial commitment toward reconstruction of the devastated territory as part of the broader US-brokered postwar framework for Gaza. The plan drew criticism from Hamas, which accused the board of sidelining UNRWA, the main UN agency responsible for Palestinian aid, raising questions about how reconstruction funds will be administered and who will control aid distribution in Gaza going forward.
