Images of Jabalia, a decades-old refugee camp which is the largest in Gaza, highlight the impact of the war. Satellite pictures from 31 October, 2023 and just two months later, in December 2023, illustrate how a three-week military operation by the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) razed the site to the ground.

Israel's war with Hamas has destroyed much of Gaza. Recent analyses find that nearly 60% of buildings, nearly 70% of orchards and 68% of roads have been damaged or destroyed by the conflict.

Israel's yearlong offensive against Hamas, launched in response to the militant group's Oct. 7 attack into Israel, has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and caused staggering destruction across the Gaza Strip that could take decades to rebuild.

Israel is expected to launch a ground offensive on the Gaza Strip in an attempt "to make sure Hamas won't have any military capabilities."
