Gaza: one year after the ceasefire, reconstruction remains blocked

One year after the ceasefire negotiated by the United States and several Arab countries, Gaza's reconstruction remains nearly halted, despite the end of large-scale military operations and the release of hostages. Israel demands the complete disarmament of Hamas before proceeding, with conditions including the withdrawal of Israeli forces, deployment of an international stabilization force, and the establishment of a new Palestinian administration. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to speak at the UN, while Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will also address the assembly via video, but has been denied a US visa for the second year in a row.
