US unveils plans for 'New Gaza' with skyscrapers

The US has unveiled its plans for a "New Gaza" that would see the devastated Palestinian territory rebuilt from scratch, BBC reported. 

Slides showed dozens of skyscrapers stretching along the Mediterranean coast and housing estates in the Rafah area, while a map outlining the phased development of new residential, agricultural and industrial areas for the 2.1 million population.

They were presented during a signing ceremony at the World Economic Forum in Davos for President Donald Trump's new Board of Peace, which is tasked with ending the two-year war between Israel and Hamas and overseeing reconstruction, according to BBC.
