UNITED NATIONS, September 16. /ITAR-TASS/. The United Nations has reached a three-party agreement with Israel and Palestine in Ramallah on the rehabilitation of the Gaza Strip after the armed conflict, United Nations special coordinator for Middle East peace Robert Serry told the United Nations Security Council on Tuesday.

He said this agreement will make it possible to carry out large-scale work to rehabilitate Gaza. Under the agreement, the Palestinian authorities will be playing a central role in these efforts, he said, adding that it was planned to involve private companies to restoration works in Gaza in a bid to improve the economic situation in the Palestinian enclave.
