    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.
