According to Reuters, the proposed plan outlines a phased development of residential, agricultural, and industrial areas for a population of 2.1 million. The "Master Plan" map features a zone dedicated to "coastal tourism" with 180 tower-blocks, alongside complexes for advanced manufacturing and data centers. A new seaport and airport are also slated for construction near the Egyptian border.

Jared Kushner, overseeing the project, highlighted the scale of the challenge, noting that 60 million tonnes of rubble must be cleared. The first phase focuses on "New Rafah," which will include over 100,000 housing units and 75 medical facilities. Kushner believes the initial construction could be completed within two to three years.
The Security Dilemma: Demilitarization as a Prerequisite
Success hinges on security. Kushner stated that the demilitarization of Hamas is "starting now," warning that private investment won't flow without stability. The plan also includes a "security perimeter" along the borders where Israeli forces are expected to remain until the territory is deemed secure.
While Israeli President Isaac Herzog praised the initiative, he emphasized that the ultimate test is whether Hamas truly leaves Gaza. Meanwhile, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas called for a full Israeli withdrawal, highlighting the complex political landscape that remains despite the ambitious economic vision.
