BERLIN, 8th March, 2025 (WAM) -- The foreign ministers of France, Germany, Italy and Britain said on Saturday they supported an Arab-backed plan for the reconstruction of Gaza that would cost $53 billion and avoid displacing Palestinians from the enclave, Reuters reported.

"The plan shows a realistic path to the reconstruction of Gaza and promises - if implemented - swift and sustainable improvement of the catastrophic living conditions for the Palestinians living in Gaza," the ministers said in a joint statement.

The Extraordinary Arab Summit last Tuesday approved the plan submitted by the Arab Republic of Egypt regarding early recovery and the reconstruction of Gaza.
