Latest United Nations assessments show Gaza faces one of the largest debris removal operations in modern history, with war rubble reaching approximately 61 million tons, Shehab Wire reported. The volume equals roughly 20 times the amount of debris from previous comparable incidents.
The cleanup and reconstruction effort will require substantial resources and time, with massive quantities of concrete, metal, and other materials scattered across the territory.
