Trump's Gaza Administration Plan Stalls Over Funding Shortages
A U.S.- and Gulf-backed plan for Gaza administration proposed by former U.S. President Donald Trump is facing setbacks due to insufficient funding, Reuters reported.
Informed sources told Reuters that only a small portion of the $17 billion pledged for the initiative has been collected. The Gaza administration committee within Trump's peace delegation has been unable to visit the territory because of budget shortages and security issues.
Officials from Trump's peace delegation rejected claims of financial restrictions.
Informed sources also said regional violence and tensions with Iran have compounded challenges for the delegation. Experts estimate that Gaza's reconstruction would require around $70 billion.
The plan has so far remained largely in the form of promises amid these obstacles.
