Engineers in Gaza are repurposing rubble from the conflict to construct new buildings using innovative techniques that eliminate the need for traditional cement, the Ma'an news agency reported. The method addresses acute shortages of construction materials in the territory while reducing waste from destroyed infrastructure.
The initiative represents an adaptation to severe supply constraints that have plagued reconstruction efforts across Gaza. Engineers have developed ways to stabilize and bind debris materials, creating usable components for new construction projects without relying on cement imports.
