An Israeli report, based on satellite imagery, revealed massive destruction caused by the Israeli army’s aggression on the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the war on October 7.

Hebrew Channel 12 said that European satellite imagery showed that at least 68 percent of the buildings were destroyed or damaged in the northern Gaza Strip, at least 72 percent in Gaza City, 39 percent in the central camps, and 46 percent in Khan Yunis.

As for the city of Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip, where Israel threatens to carry out a military operation, the destruction rate reached about 20 percent.

In December, the Government Media Office (GMO) in Gaza announced that the Israeli army had demolished more than 61 percent of Palestinian homes in the Strip.

The GMO said in a statement that “the Israeli occupation destroyed more than 305,000 housing units as part of its broad genocidal war against our Palestinian people.”

Since October 7, Israel has been waging a devastating war on the Gaza Strip, leaving tens of thousands of casualties among civilians, most of them are children and women, in addition to an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe and massive infrastructure destruction.
