**GAZA CITY** – Israel’s renewed assault on Gaza has shattered a fragile ceasefire, leading to a devastating surge in casualties and renewed displacement, according to UN sources. Hundreds have been killed in the first week of intensified fighting, raising serious concerns about the future of the already war-torn territory. Palestinians are once again facing evacuation orders amid mounting destruction. The prospect of rebuilding Gaza, already a daunting task, is now fading rapidly.
In response to the crisis, Now You Know spoke with Ms. Paula Gaviria, UN Special Rapporteur for the human rights of internally displaced people. The interview explored the immense challenges involved in planning any future reconstruction efforts and questioned the feasibility of such a project given the current circumstances. The conversation highlighted the urgent need for humanitarian aid and raised critical questions about the long-term prospects for peace and rebuilding in Gaza.
