Project Sunrise is a U.S.-backed plan to rebuild Gaza into a modern coastal and technology hub, tying international investment and reconstruction to the full disarmament of Hamas – a central Israeli security demand.
Trump’s vision for Gaza is bold, optimistic — and controversial. Dubbed “The New Rafah,” the plan aims to replace Gaza’s terror infrastructure with a Mediterranean-style Riviera, backed by billions of dollars from global investors and wealthy donors.
The idea is ambitious: rebuild Gaza from the ground up, dismantle terror networks, and create a future centered on prosperity rather than violence. But one critical question looms large — how to ensure the money fuels peace, not terror.
