The UN reported on Monday that more than half of the buildings in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed by Israeli attacks since October 7.
"More than half of all buildings have been destroyed," the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) said on X, citing data from the United Nations Satellite Center (UNOSAT), Anadolu reported.
Stating the destruction in Gaza is "indescribable," it added: "Clearing the rubble will take years. Healing from the psychological trauma of this war will take even longer.”
Reiterating its call for a ceasefire, the statement said: "This suffering must end."
