UN special coordinator for the Middle East peace process Nickolay Mladenov announced in a Feb. 15 statement that the Palestinians and Israelis have reached an agreement on reviewing the reconstruction plan of the Gaza Strip in place since 2014, so as to effectively repair the damage caused by the Israeli war on Gaza the same year.

Miladinov’s statement followed a meeting in Ramallah on Feb. 14 with Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah and the Israeli Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories Maj. Gen. Yoav Mordechai to discuss the possibility of alleviating Israeli restrictions on Gaza and speeding up the reconstruction process.
