Gaza War Debris Presents Major Challenge
Relief teams in the Gaza Strip face an unprecedented task of removing approximately 61 million tons of rubble resulting from the war, making it one of the largest debris removal operations in modern history. The process is expected to take between 7 to 10 years and cost billions of dollars, with estimates indicating that between 8,000 and 10,000 bodies are still buried beneath the debris, making recovery efforts extremely sensitive for local communities. Additionally, teams face dangers from unexploded ordnance, hazardous materials such as asbestos, and the risk of collapsing damaged buildings. Currently, some of the rubble is being recycled for use in road repairs and shelter construction, despite its poor quality and the inability to bring in new equipment due to the blockade.
