A conference on the reconstruction of Gaza after the cease-fire was announced in Egypt.

Egypt will hold a conference on the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip after a ceasefire agreement is reached between the Palestinian movement Hamas and Israel. This was announced on August 13 by Egyptian Foreign Minister Abdel Ata.

"When we reach a ceasefire agreement, we will hold an international conference to discuss the reconstruction of Gaza. We are preparing for the event, which will last two days," he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

According to the head of the Foreign Ministry, the key point remains to reach an agreement on a truce. He added that the conference will discuss issues related to the organization of the enclave after the conflict, such as security and post—war governance.

Ata stressed that the conference will also address the issue of financing the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, in particular, providing people with temporary housing, medical care, as well as solving water problems.
