The United Nations estimates that about 82 per cent of structures in Gaza have been damaged.
Three years after the Hamas-led attacks and the destruction that followed, Gaza remains heavily damaged while recovery work is slowed by limited machinery, restrictions on materials and unresolved disputes over disarmament and governance. A proposed first phase of reconstruction is valued at $2.45 billion.
