Bellingcat, an investigative journalism group, said its analysis of satellite imagery shows a vast swaths of Rafah, in the south of the Gaza Strip, have been damaged or destroyed by Israeli occupation forces since its offensive military operations started in the city.
It revealed that Israeli forces have demolished entire city blocks as part of their expansion of the Philadelphi Corridor into neighbourhoods in the south of Rafah, including the Brazil Refugee Camp and Dahiyat As-Salam.
Bellingcat found that the destruction went far beyond the expanded Philadelphi Corridor, including into the eastern neighbourhood of Tal as-Sultan, where only 224 of roughly 670 buildings remain standing.
