BEIJING - China supports the post-war governance plan for Gaza that is endorsed by the Palestinian people and agreed upon by Arab countries, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said on Wednesday.

At an emergency Arab summit in Cairo on Tuesday, Arab leaders approved Egypt's reconstruction plan for Gaza, which is estimated to cost $53 billion and aims to avoid displacing Palestinians from the enclave.
