Based on proposals presented by Jared Kushner in January 2026, the proposed "New Gaza" rebuild aims to transform the territory into a commercial and industrial hub, featuring over 100,000 new permanent housing units, 200 schools, 75 medical facilities, and high-rise developments. The vision includes constructing data centers, industrial parks, and potential seaside resorts, designed to turn the area into a, "Riviera of the Middle East".
Key Components of the Proposed "New Gaza" Rebuild:
Infrastructure & Housing: Plans feature "New Rafah" in the south with mass residential construction and "New Gaza" to the north, utilizing AI-generated designs for skyscrapers and urban development.
Economic Zones: The plan focuses on transforming the territory into a center for industry, specifically data centers and technological infrastructure.
Security & Oversight: The proposal includes a new, demilitarized, and vetted security framework where only authorized personnel may carry weapons.
Services: The reconstruction includes,75+ medical facilities and 200+ schools, aiming to replace destroyed, infrastructure with modern, high-density, structures.
Timeline and Implementation:
Timeline: The proposal aims for a two-to-three-year completion timeline, with initial, rubble removal already, underway.
Funding: The project aims to attract private, sector, investment and international, funding for, "mega-projects" rather than relying solely on, donations.
Constraints: The vision faces skepticism regarding, its feasibility and, potential, relocation, of, residents,.
Reconstruction programs for Gaza, primarily spearheaded by the "Board of Peace" (a US-led initiative) and various regional proposals, envision a total transformation of the territory into a modern economic hub often referred to as "New Gaza".
Upon
completion, these programs aim to include:
1. Infrastructure & Urban Development
Coastal "Skyscrapers": A "coastal tourism" zone featuring up to 180 high-rise towers and luxury penthouse residences designed to resemble Persian Gulf cities like Dubai or Doha.
New Cities: Development of "New Rafah" and other zoned residential areas providing over 100,000 to 460,000 permanent housing units.
Transportation
Hubs: A brand new commercial seaport and a Gaza
International Airport
located near the Egyptian border.
The "MBS Ring": A high-tech rail and highway system (named after Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman) connecting urban centers.
2. Economic & Industrial Zones
"Smart" Manufacturing: An "Elon Musk Smart Manufacturing Zone" along the Gaza-Israel border.
Digital Infrastructure: Large-scale data centers and advanced manufacturing facilities intended to shift Gaza toward a technology-based economy.
Full Employment Goal: The programs aim for 100% employment through 500,000+ new jobs in construction, services, and high-tech sectors.
3. Public Services & Social Facilities
Educational & Medical Centers: Over 200 new schools and 75+ modern medical facilities.
Cultural Landmarks: Construction of roughly 180 mosques and various cultural and religious centers.
Utility Networks: Complete restoration and modernization of power grids, sewage systems, and desalination plants to ensure independent water and energy security.
4. Security & Governance
Demilitarized Zone: A "terror-free" zone with all tunnels and military infrastructure permanently removed.
International Oversight: A transitional period governed by a technocratic Palestinian committee under the supervision of the international Board of Peace and a temporary International Stabilization Force (ISF).
Security
Perimeter
: A designated
buffer zone along the borders where security forces will remain to ensure
long-term stability.
While these plans promise a "Glitzy Riviera", they have faced criticism from some Palestinian advocates and international observers for potentially erasing Gaza's existing urban fabric and indigenous character in favor of a "real estate fantasy".

It is expected that “New Gaza” schools will end teaching jihad and begin teaching skills needed to support the New Gaza Economy. Arab countries are increasingly opposing Jihad.
