Gaza Faces Monumental Cleanup: 55M Tonnes of Debris Post-Conflict 🌍🚧

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has revealed a staggering challenge for Gaza: clearing 55 million tonnes of debris—equivalent to 13 Pyramids of Giza—before reconstruction can begin. 🏗️💥

Jaco Cilliers, UNDP’s special representative, emphasized the scale during a visit to the region, calling it a "daunting task" amid ongoing recovery efforts. Two years of intense conflict have left 83% of Gaza’s buildings damaged or destroyed, per UN Satellite Centre data. 🛰️📉

Rebuilding homes, schools, and infrastructure will require global cooperation, but the sheer volume of rubble—enough to fill over 1,000 football stadiums—poses environmental and logistical hurdles. 🌐🤝
