UN estimates concluded that after the current war, it will take at least a year just to clear the rubble, and between seven and 10 years to rebuild the destroyed homes, and it would take the Gaza Strip until 2092 just to restore the GDP levels of 2022, with GDP per capita and socioeconomic conditions continuously declining. However, even with the most optimistic scenario, it would still take the Gaza Strip’s GDP per capita until 2035 to return to its pre-blockade level.

Edit: ReliefWeb is very interesting if you want to be sad all the time. They have a lot of news about Palestine.

A European report, based on satellite imagery, revealed massive destruction caused by the Israeli army’s aggression on the Gaza Strip, showing that at least 68 percent of the buildings were destroyed or damaged in the northern Gaza Strip, at least 72 percent in Gaza City, 39 percent in the central camps, and 46 percent in Khan Yunis. As for the city of Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip, where Israel threatens to carry out a military operation, the destruction rate reached about 20 percent.

The only difference, is that they can target things more specifically, e.g. to decrease the size of the gaza strip:

In addition to demolishing all structures in the eastern Gaza Strip that were situated between 1,000 and 1,500 metres away from the border fence, the Israeli army has levelled entire residential squares to create a buffer zone that would enclose over 15% of the wider Gaza Strip, which does not exceed 365 square kilometres, and is among the most densely populated areas in the world.

More stuff to make you cry

the city of Rafah, the last refuge of about 1.5 million forcibly displaced Palestinians in the Gaza Strip

an estimated 600,000 children [live in Rafah]

One in three people in Rafah is a child.

As of 16 February, the Israeli forces’ operation in the the Nasser Hospital complex in Khan Younis continues. The Israeli military alleged that Hamas was holding hostages or withholding the bodies of Israelis within the compound, and subsequently reported that its forces arrested twenty of the suspects from the 7 October attacks in Israel. On 15 February, the Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that hundreds of patients and staff had been relocated to a building within the hospital compound, where they lacked food, water, and baby formula, and that the hospital generators had stopped functioning, putting the lives of six patients on ventilators in the intensive care unit (ICU), and three premature babies, at risk. On the morning of 16 February, the Ministry of Health reported that five ICU patients had died due to the depletion of oxygen. On 15 February, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) reported that the hospital had been shelled, killing and wounding an undetermined number of people, and that one of its staff was unaccounted for. On 15 February, Martin Griffiths, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, expressing his concern about developments at the hospital, stated the “wounded and sick, as well as medical personnel and facilities must be protected. All feasible precautions must be taken to spare patients, staff and civilians sheltering in the hospital. Hospitals must be places of greater safety, not of war.”
