700 days of Israeli war leave 90% of Gaza destroyed, $68B in losses

Gaza’s Government Media Office said Saturday that 700 days of Israeli bombardment on the enclave have left nearly all of the territory’s infrastructure in ruins and inflicted losses of more than $68 billion.

In a statement, the office said the deadly campaign has resulted in the destruction of about 90% of Gaza’s infrastructure, alongside “systematic policies of genocide and forced displacement.” It said that more than 73,700 people have been killed or remain missing, including over 20,000 children and 12,500 women.
