UN imagery shows Shejaiya damage
The United Nations publishes satellite imagery showing the Shejaiya neighborhood before and after intense ground battles and airstrikes there.
Called “Damage Assessment in Northeastern Gaza Strip – Occupied Palestinian Territory,” the images, published Saturday by the UN’s Operational Satellite Applications Program, shows two localized zones of intense damage in the neighborhood, in which structures were completely destroyed, with the rest of Shejaiya relatively intact save for scattered damaged and ruined buildings.
According to the document, the UN claims to have identified 886 damaged structures, including 604 which were completely destroyed.
