UN to rebuild Gaza 'for the last time'

The United Nations is ready to help rebuild Gaza but for the last time, UN chief Ban Ki-moon warned on Wednesday.
"The senseless cycle of suffering in Gaza and the West Bank, as well as in Israel, must end," he told a special meeting of the United Nations General Assembly.
"Do we have to continue like this - build, destroy, and build and destroy? We will build again but this must be the last time -- to rebuild. This must stop now."
