Satellite images reveal vast destruction across Gaza following Israel’s genocide

Updated satellite imagery on Google Maps on Monday revealed the scale of widespread destruction caused by Israel's genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
The aerial images showed entire residential neighborhoods disappeared and vast urban areas reduced to layers of rubble and debris.
The updated imagery reveals a dramatic transformation of Gaza's urban landscape, with destruction extending beyond individual buildings to entire residential blocks, leaving vast empty areas where densely populated neighborhoods once stood.
The images provide a broader view of the destruction across neighborhoods and residential blocks, allowing comparisons between Gaza's current urban landscape and the period before the war and showing the extent of areas that have been destroyed.
