11:31 pm
hello the on james bay's the situation and gaza has become so bad that helps to forward his comp kemp the dead because israel is attacked communication networks. no financial figure can ever be put on the lives lost, or the many, many palestinians injured by israeli palms, and bullets weapons supplied by the u. s. u. k. in the countries the economic cost of israel's relentless on sloth is not yet known, but there is no doubt it will be a mens media from around the world of for train garza as a place of auto devastation but that mosques is vibrant community and it's resilience for which from year is randy has still a t blockades and attacks and it's reflected in gauze as businesses vital for its people like the health service. both sectors have been in the following line and the destruction is affecting everyone. and what about you have done so it does this . a shortage of bread garza has been without select tricity for a month to can live without electricity. we have no fresh water for everything. and
11:32 pm
because i was running out electricity brands, everything goes what is suffering in the world is watching for how long for how long. yeah, and that would be something that's a good option to do. but now we've been up since doing chewing for bridge. we go out in the morning to charge, i'll find batteries and find food for our children. we can't bear any more. this. how long do we have to live like this? none of the arab leaders cares. no one cares about us. you know, we lived out of town and all my and there's no water in the school, sewage, 7 or wherever. we're surrounded by dirt, none of these bathrooms work. none of these restrooms. i clean and there's no food and nothing to drink. what should we do? what should we do? find a solution for god's sake. we need a ceasefire. while the u. n is released to report on the impact of israel's war and the policy and people in both goals and the west bank. it says the physical destruction is causing an economic disaster. i think off the one month of this war and now unfolding. first of all, what is quite is that on top of these,
11:33 pm
your monetary and crisis that the world has seen on fold in gaza right now. we also are beginning to see the, the development crisis that follows the increase in poverty rates and the loss of gdp, the destruction in terms of infrastructure, housing units to well, let's take a look at some of the findings of that you and development programs report. it says, ready strikes, have destroyed or damaged nearly haul off of old houses in garza and 1500000 promised indians, many of whom are already refugees of being forced from that homes. more than 40 percent of schools, colleges and universities have been damaged or destroyed, meaning $625000.00 students have no access to education. 2 thirds of gauze is hospitals and health care centers and being forced to shut down. many were directly targeted by his right the strikes in 5 weeks. about $390000.00 palestinians have
11:34 pm
lost their jobs and properties projected to sol between 20 and 45 percent of the un says if the will continues into a 3rd month. unemployment will nearly double pushing an additional $660000.00 people into poverty. well, let's discuss all of this symbol with all paddle of gas and dough. how we have time con moved. he's from garza and his assistant professor of public policy at the bow institute for graduate studies. in istanbul, we have helene sarah, tom to a patient for him. policy specialist, an associate professor of international relations of the a symbol, me down it university. and also in doha salton, barbara cast a professor of public policy at the haven't been kelly for universities. also the also of the report off to the conflict reconstruction and development in the optim, off of war. we clearly have the right experts to discuss this subject, but before i talk about the devastating economic effects,
11:35 pm
i think we need to remember that the death toll is continuing to mount time up to you 1st, a really grim moment, i think in a, in this conflict because for the 1st time, the ministry of health and garza, because of the situation in the hospitals and garza city because of the communication problems, they not been able to update the death toll figures. so for now it seems the dead in gaza on people being counted. hey, jim split suddenly. yes, that's the, that's the reality. know, and guys, and there is no communication with the ministry of health or with hospitals. and the situation is obviously very direct senior diet and why doesn't and also more or less the national community so far it has failed, doesn't many times the to bring the ceasefire uh on the entrance of necessity
11:36 pm
aids on even helping uh, creating safe uh, humidity. in a corner, those for about a student has to be able to leave, would evacuate, and name it. it's a, it's a, it's, you know, to be up on a scene and in these modern times it's um, it's something hot but a soon as i'm paying got a really heavy price on how difficult is it for you coming from gaza watching this from a fall because these are family and friends. yes, jim stein, many friends best on the board. the almost the 70. he doesn't guys that with the united nations development program, which has which its own at the conference ive been bumped to the it's, locate the mix of ship hospital and i had been in charge of measure the construction of projects and the gaza strip. i have seen that peaceful times of gaza and i've seen also and i've left the conflict and reconstructing also times and gaza. so i know i know every aspect of it. i know that the soft thudding people
11:37 pm
went through and i know also that you relating situation and, and you wouldn't get fix up your commission, which never brought any sense of normality to guidance. so tom, when we look at the devastation, the humanitarian part of united nations as 45 percent of gauze homes that might have been destroyed or damaged. and then we look, we see those pictures of people who are moving with small backpacks moving from one part of garza to another. not knowing where anywhere is safe, trying to find some sort of shelter. the kind of figures from the un, or over 1500000 people internally displaced. but i've also seen reports that these ready the government. they were told it's 1700000 to yes. well i could be, i mean, to figure out whether it's $1.00 or $1.00. it's beyond the ability of any nation to immediately rebuild advocates or for the emotional needs of these populations.
11:38 pm
even when you have your boarders often and you know how the international community coming to you and how we just need to look at how long it took a can just like turkey to recover from. they meet at the aftermath of the earthquake or morocco recently. and measure accordingly in the context of guys are the biggest problem with always remain the daughter siege of the of the area is rather continues to hold the control over the, the aerospace, the watch ways and the access from the sea and, and land. and will make it difficult as we have all and with this and made it impossible for him to do and assistance to come. and as soon as they start thinking of free building, they will come in also to make it very, very difficult for material and goods to come in for the purpose of reconstruction . and this is one of the reasons why in your introduction you refer to the cumulative damage and gossip that some of the damage that's occurred as a back and 2009 is still being dealt with. that hasn't taught to the cupboards from
11:39 pm
that for now. not to mention the bombings that followed in 2014 to 2021 and so on. so we have a unique situation in the world where you have a population. now, 2200000 people or 2500000 people in a very dense does the populated area where their own and to be who is subjecting them to this bivens is also being asked to help in its reconstruction. and we can discuss this maybe in more detail later in the, in our discussion. lean um, you heard the salt and talked about the example we're remember earlier this year of that was quite, that struck syria and to kia. that was an a pulling natural disaster. here we have a humanitarian emergency where things are continuing and those trying to flee all
11:40 pm
being targeted. and that targeting continues. yeah, i 2 months and maybe years you previously in turkey and it's not already settled in the 1st place. songs to reconstruct the cities, to turn the in bay of living into a normal situation. and emotionally, people aren't, there was faces as well in, in such places. so i can't imagine what the teeth clean does are feeding and you know, going to it in these very difficult days. a porter, that's the case. and this has been the case for a 1000 people for so many years. it's just a conflict more than 75 years. and as for several times they went to such kind of crimes, such the x, x, x, x, y, a prime. and unfortunately, we are, which is the and one of them, again time, uh, we're talking about the destruction that we're seeing. the pictures we're seeing
11:41 pm
buildings gone, a wasteland. i've been interested in your when you look at those pictures, what as a golf and do you think because then not just buildings, all that this is the history, this is the culture of the heritage of gauze with this being destroyed. oh, of course it is. i mean, i mean obviously is what i need is uh, uh, demolishing. i mean prospects for uh, for uh, you know, uh for the guidelines to uh, to come back to resilience to themselves. i mean, when you look at the scale of this destruction and knowing that the guys a is an open data present and includes an every piece of, uh, every meter of some and every house. every, the southern facility at the hold up is being has been demolished so far that the
11:42 pm
sticky speaking, reconstructing guys after this world in, in the norman setup with the axis of aids, is not going to stick to it. it's like that is right and as know everything. uh, a good thing over aid, it might pick use, you know, i mean, as, as mike, when he from 30 said, i mean even in 13 which is a normal country, which has also to see best assistance and, and have from many other nations. been coping with doctor math of this quick, what we're seeing does isn't f work with as a man made disaster by these ladies. and for me it's, it's, it's, i mean, i, i, again, i mean to, to, to discuss the future of guys and the possibilities of reconstructing it. it's hard to talk about it without stopping discussing the scenarios on how this, when ends in gaza. because then when i come from a knowing these ladies and also the complicit positions of the community, including many doughnuts don't provide the assistance of the students on select to be sure was where money should go and what it should not go uh this this,
11:43 pm
i mean it all depends really on, on how what did this, what end i mean if it ends with i'm still empowered. busy i think the misery will continue, and i have to say it's a lump lead. uh because uh, it's what i will be. what have up in front of the process so far, what they have publicly the clear visit i is the the that the and visit a future without thomas, i don't think don't be able to achieve it. but the thing is, if this war ends with the same pri, best at the school, plus the best destruction and loss and lives. and is what i like into leap and still control of. i need to tell people such a positive. we're talking about even a more than just sit on your of doesn't being emptied slowly from its own people because the living conditions and invitations. the is what i would put on this subsidy. construction process would make it so hard for people to stay for long and wait for a to come and do it again. i know my life again. salt on. we clearly don't know how
11:44 pm
this is going to end, but i do think we probably reached a pretty important stage in this halfway not now. because israel has seems to have succeeded in shutting down the hospitals. in ga, the goal is a city. the last place is okay and refuge in the north. and we're now seeing these thousands of people have been intimidated to leave homes. one assumes because of israel stay today to, to, to destroy how miles this means. even more bombardment and destruction is likely on the way for goals. a city very soon. a yes, i mean it looks like good to know has now made up his mind to slice off the 20 percent of the land that you didn't know so because of which includes much of that guy is a city and he would probably have to turn that into a no man's land as security is own, similar to the one is right created in 11 in the following,
11:45 pm
the invasion of from 1980 to 1992. and this was that, and maybe this is where he was referring to the top down security control within that particular sector. so that she pushes the resistance as far as possible from the main cities of time to even ask along. and then from there, he would want to exercise further incursions into the rest of guys a to, to provide that for, for security. as he again, as he pointed to have the ability to make sure that security is how long within, within guys and the mean author and some guys are to as well. now of course, this is his own scenario and uh, it is very, i need to say whether he'd be able to achieve it or not. but to get to that point, that he is having to destroy much of, of steri. i mean, now we're talking about almost 50 percent of the of the housing stock. i suspect
11:46 pm
probably more. and the infrastructure to talk to the is, is, is not a go in and hospitals, schools. all those people that use pushed out to northern guys of have no temporary refugee camps to just see cartridges. there's most of them are in schools, which means that we have a whole generation of to school now and given the speed in which things happening, guys, when they take refuge, is closer take another year, year and a half to get them out to schools into their apparent housing and so on. so i do cation is out of the equation for a long, long time to come. and of course, the unemployment continues be very high and will get to worst because of the siege . the normal conflicts of reconstruction, connectivity to the rest of the world is very, very important. and in terms of allowing not just the capacities and discounts to come in to have it back to solve. but also the material is, it's very few places around the world on self sufficient,
11:47 pm
in the sense that they can generate the on reconstruction the hardware. so by cutting this eh, connectivity to the rest of the world, whatever trans i thought from what you guys are going to be twice as difficult and appropriate, might take and will take a long, long time to implement, which has been the case. i was, as i was saying, an idea and the experience of god, this is 2009. well let's look at the previous full was in gaza. the sense the cycle of damage has cost billions of $1.00 to $3.00. we will that began in december 2008 and ended in january 2009 cost destruction amounting to $2000000000.00. that's according to the world bank. i'm asked as the 8 days was right. the attacks in 2012 cost cause $1200000000.00 for the $6000000000.00 was the estimated cost of rebuilding cause of the 2014 and the damage and economic losses from these riley attacks. in 2021 amounted to more than half
11:48 pm
a $1000000000.00 helene, just remind us in the past who was being one of the main countries involved in the efforts to rebuild goals, or i know you're running country way use it to p a is one of them and our other guests are all speaking from caught all which is another one of the major funders in the past. that's correct and i see to see has increased its capacity. a loss is very high amount of a form, a mistake. and the sun has been always in the for, as he'll see, kind of, she's the find his id number. see we have some money a and the 3rd one is sell a son, especially the countries for receiving form a from turkey for next week. and i would like to once again on the line this thursday is to do with us, but we construct it goes out of course, plus there's an irony here i'm supposed to receive that in all the prison. i know
11:49 pm
honors showing clearly his reaction against what is right and 3 against the 1000 people at the same time. he's also choosing a council language. although the, the amongst the told him that he's using a guess he's vice a slight increase to lie, can say that he's quite careful of loss in words. that is because we and many other countries who are giving they are sold the a cost to the people of guns out to make their lives better. unfortunately has to deal with is violence or 1st. so we have to keep the contact reserve. our contact is so much time with these lines in order to do something for the people who are stuck in gaza. that's the the that, that brings me to what we saw. that is why make arab league summit that took place in re add. and you mentioned the comments of present a one he's calling on israel to foot the bill for the reconstruction and god. so
11:50 pm
let's listen to what he had to say. i said point a compensation. it is one of the factors that is a, is acting direct. leslie is that it on every occasion, they escape payment of compensation for aids and every crime they commit from destruction to the killing is a must pay compensations. it is like a favor. the cut, the boy. yeah, it's good. the accusing is around it being a spoiled child time of that and saying that israel should pay reparations. that's not gonna happen. is it as long as there is more international and when to make it sort of accountable for these uh, for this crime? 0. yeah, of course of the laptop. and i mean, so far, i mean it, since the creation of baltimore 19901949. that's a must have come in,
11:51 pm
it has been committed to funding and supporting, you know, the creation of, of the will. but a scene and institutions to, in the hope to achieve the, the betterment of the a piece. you know, a good thing to apartment b, some submission to proceed in states and billions of dollars have been invested in this project. not only from fed up to you, i mean data opinion and is a, is a major doing in the us is that the one of japan out of countries is let me countries. but the problem is that since the creation of also, it is what has been more or less behaving as if it's in that occupation. 5 starters moment, like keeping a compression does not cost isn't anything because there is a sort of poverty which is the doing what it was on the national community 1000000000 for the bill. and the whole idea of also was built around a 5 fuse timeframe where it should lead to dependent but as soon as dates and then
11:52 pm
it will be consolidated on supporting a by the soonest date. but because of the piece of process, this has never been the case. so what that will happen, what happens is a fairly decent process that have started from $194910.00. no, you still have the donors committed to open it up on the screen as a defense on methane of your patient. so it's a better consumption to stop the school. what is it a and fee is? it's at ease of doing anything targeting people, targeting it for structure, and this tax money that comes from $1.00 of the lower the products paid the europeans periodontics paid. it's wasted, and no one is able to put it up, making a little accountable for this. so yes, if there is any hope that the piece of process would be divided, hopefully after the end of this more then should be up. how do you see the question about the mission community on ensuring that there is no soft testing as a free aids. and that is right and should be also accountable for i need talk to
11:53 pm
the say the other was, i'm also old and for what president or don't say it's for these ladies between the prize they should be comfortable and pay us wouldn't pay for whatever they inflict on palestinians being compensation for victims, beer compensation for the rest of the infrastructure name. it's i know also a james that a, something goes. so we have to talk about this with this also get the mass email just end up in a steamy and political life. also as a democrat, democratically elected movement because there was an election of 2006 and the community appraised. i've left the selections and it was described as i'm, and as a, as a, as a democratic. what so it donors also the kind of go and pick and choose what it comes to happening, but the thing is there should be no discrimination when it comes to a bass. all right, let me, let me, let me bring in a soul to now just on reconstruction in the past, because i know you've done a lot of work in this, and i'm getting
11:54 pm
a bit technical here. but that was something called the gauze reconstruction mechanism. can you tell me how that, how to put reconstruction in the past? right. so that ticket as it was introduced in the aftermath of 2014. and it was intended to ensure that the, the building meant to coming into gaza does not have dual use. now the words cannot be used to manufacture weapons. so student pipes, uh a lot of uh the lights and in general uh, cement is a dry, could not come into the gaza strip unless it's right in verifies where every piece goals. and there's a very sophisticated mechanism. it was run by the united nations, a supervisor also by the you as well, and an agreement with the front of thing on us already. and it allows us drives to follow every piece of equipment where it ended up in which building. exactly. this
11:55 pm
is how, how, how sold out, how did that hinder the reconstruction efforts? a while it's, it has been made, it takes to really slow to bring material and, and, and such a, you know, you couldn't treat the lineup people to be able to do the work in a timely fashion. it also made it to the extremely expensive when you have a sees like that, we have any kind of concept of scarcity sort of sense and everything that you, that you, you can get to hands on and gas so it becomes 10 to 10 times as expensive as anywhere else outside guys, now before 2014, there was a booming reconstruction phase between the 2009, and that well, the executive side that may be $11.12 under mercy one more c was the president in egypt. he turned a blind eye to the tunnels that the palestinians had established between gaza and the egypt introductory. and there was at the p going about $300.00 of them and they
11:56 pm
were able to smuggle in a lot of material when she reflected extremely positively on the economy inside. guys have particular unemployment construction or reconstruction is the main form of employment for young men in gaza. and it's been going into into, into peaks every now and then. but in general, this is what people can do and that's confinement is let me bring it. let me bring in tyler again. now, if i can time, i want to go back to that summit in riyadh because that was, you can only imagine is that that summit of islamic and arab leaders could have made apparently, in the preparatory measures, they were talking about all sorts of payments. punitive measures against israel cutting diplomatic and economic ties, leveraging arab energy and financial power against israel banning is riley croft from arrow bass bass and they didn't degree any of it. your reaction. i'm not surprised at all, james. i mean, let's go back in a city the member of the 1982 caesar flipping on the seizure of the piano,
11:57 pm
invited with when is that an inverted live in a uh, uh, uh, to get type of the piano. uh, at that time we only have one other company that had the blue methics relations with is that a which was egypt which it was too much of a piece. agreements with these are often 9073 and most of the countries the did not have any. the 2 met the conditions. what is that understood? they failed to do anything to the ppo. okay. um, we know how much time is the time of we tell them we don't know which time we'll what, what didn't happen that react if you could address that very quickly at most out of country, especially the ones that have normalized diminishes. what is it in that book the physic interested with? is that on the west of the scene and interest your reaction please. so tom, to what happened to that summit? i agree. i think it was a missed opportunity to come out with a single voice that it presents the list of nations similar to the one they
11:58 pm
exercised in the un general assembly, even though they came together and they managed to get that as addition to the minimum, to that being to cut to political diplomatic relations with israel. i think they should have also and introduced the possibility of a comic sanctions. and also, uh maybe, uh, some kind of thing with the, with the on prices which will then make the united states think twice about the unwavering support that's now giving to, to his ro are signs to all of you for joining us today. all guess what time a comment helene the sarah all the time and salt and barrel capped out to 0 will keep following the war on goals around the cloth. you can also find more context and analysis on a website, which is there a dot com. if you got your own comments, we'd like to hear from you go to our facebook page. that's facebook dot com, forward slash 8 inside story on x. that's the form of twitter. find us at a inside story from the james page and the team here in doha. stay safe and i'll
