“We will change the Middle East,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised after Hamas killed thousands of Israelis in settlements near the Gaza Strip on October 7. Hamas will no longer exist after the war.

Whether the latter will succeed remains to be seen, as Hamas has an advanced tunnel system. But Israel is actually changing the face of the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian region has been under attack for twelve days. According to the Hamas-controlled health authority in Gaza, 3,500 people have been killed so far and thousands have been forced to leave their homes. And satellite images show entire buildings being razed to the ground.

Beth Hanoun

Beit Hanoun is located just fourteen kilometers from the Israeli city of Sderot. Hamas repeatedly fires rockets at Israel from there. The settler town of Kibbutzim, near Sderot, became the scene of their atrocities. Since then, several buildings in Beit Hanoun have been shelled by Israel. The Israeli army is certain that Hamas has important locations in the many high-rise buildings. On October 9, the only hospital in Beit Hanoun was apparently hit, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reported. However, Israel claims that no civilian facilities are being shelled.

Rimal, Gaza City

There is also rubble in the middle of Gaza City. The Rimal district in particular was heavily bombed. The images from October 11 show how entire residential complexes were razed to the ground. According to the Israeli military, government headquarters were primarily targeted.

Mosques in Gaza City

Several mosques came to the attention of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). The satellite images show the al-Gharbi Mosque before and after the shelling. Then it’s like it’s been erased. The al-Gharbi Mosque is located in the most densely populated part of Gaza City. The IDF suspects that Hamas operates terrorist headquarters in the mosques.

Watan Tower, Gaza City

All that remains of the Watan Tower in central Gaza City is rubble. The office building would have allowed internet access. The destruction may have allowed the IDF to restrict Hamas’ communications.

Atatra, Beit Lahiya

The town of Beit Lahiya was bombed by the IDF on October 12. It is located in the north of the Gaza Strip and only a few kilometers from Beit Hanoun. Israel considers the district a Hamas stronghold. Many of the terrorist organization’s infrastructure facilities are said to be located there.
