Days after Hamas’ terror attack on Israel, satellite images on Tuesday captured the devastation of Israel’s retaliatory strikes on Gaza.
Gaza militants on Saturday launched a surprise attack by land, air and sea, descending on an Israeli music festival, kibbutzes and cities. At least 1,000 people have been killed in Israel, 2,800 have been injured, and dozens have been taken hostage, according to the Israel Defense Forces.
The Israeli bombardment and destruction in Gaza City were foreshadowed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who had promised retaliation that would “reverberate with them for generations.”
More than 900 people, including 260 children, have been killed in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. More than 4,000 have been injured.
A drone image from Maxar Technologies shows an explosion from an airstrike. In another image, devastated and charred residential buildings can be seen.
