Britain plans Falkland reconstruction after war
Stanley Falklands civil commissioner Rex Hunt says troops will return home soon but reconstruction will take priority. Mines must be cleared, homes rebuilt, and the airfield lengthened to support reinforcements. The 2,500-strong garrison aims to deter repeats of the April invasion while restoring water, power, and sheep industry. Offshore oil potential and kelp byproducts may attract aid and investment.
