GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Salah al-Din Road connects the Gaza Strip's municipalities, extending over roughly 46 kilometers, from the far north of the Gaza Strip, in Beit Hanoun, to Rafah city in the far south. In 2013, four phases were set for the development of the road with the support and financing of the Qatari Committee for the Reconstruction of Gaza.
While three of the phases have now been completed, the road still lacks lighting, and citizens and drivers fear Salah al-Din Road has become lethal.
