U.N. BROKERS DEAL FOR REBUILDING GAZA The United Nations has pulled together a deal agreed to by Israel and the Palestinians on rebuilding the Gaza Strip, the U.N.s top Middle East envoy says. More than 2,100 Palestinians were killed in Gaza in an Israeli offensive aimed at halting Hamas attacks in southern Israel. The violence, which also killed 66 Israelis, destroyed an estimated 18,000 houses, leaving 100,000 Gazans homeless. Under the deal, the Palestinian Authority and private firms will have major roles in the rebuilding. [BBC News]
