According to a series of United Nations reports, the destruction of housing in Gaza due to Israel's US-backed military offensive has reached levels not seen since World War II. The UN, including statements from UN Development Programme Administrator Achim Steiner, estimates that even if the conflict ceased today, it would take until at least 2040 to rebuild the homes destroyed. This timeline could extend into the next century if the pace of reconstruction matches that of post-2014 and 2021 conflicts. The reports also highlight the severe human toll, with approximately 5% of Gaza's 2.3 million population killed in the last seven months.
