Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Arab League Agrees to $53 Billion Gaza Reconstruction Plan

HeadlineMar 06, 2025

Leaders of the Arab League have agreed to Egypt’s $53 billion, five-year proposal to rebuild the Gaza Strip without permanently displacing its more than 2 million residents, as President Trump has proposed. The reconstruction plan seeks to first clear rubble from Gaza’s main highway while building temporary housing for 1.2 million people left homeless by Israel’s U.S.-backed assault. Later phases would see at least 400,000 permanent homes built; water, sanitation, power and telecommunications restored; and the reconstruction of Gaza’s seaport and international airport.
