According to the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, Israel has dropped more than 25,000 tonnes of explosives on the Gaza Strip since October 7, equivalent to two nuclear bombs.

In comparison, the Little Boy nuclear bomb dropped by the United States on Hiroshima during World War II yielded 15,000 tonnes of high explosives and destroyed everything within a one-mile (1.6km) radius.

According to the latest data from the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), World Health Organization (WHO) and the Palestinian government, and as of November 7, Israeli attacks have damaged at least:

• Half of Gaza’s homes - 222,000 residential units damaged with more than 40,000 completely destroyed
  
• 278 educational facilities damaged
  
• 270 healthcare facilities attacked
  
• 69 places of worship damaged, including mosques and churches
  
• 45 ambulances damaged
  
• 11 bakeries destroyed
  

“Israel's use of ‘smart bombs’ in Gaza is part of a broader military strategy aimed at accurately targeting militant infrastructure to achieve military objectives, with no attempt to limit civilian casualties and infrastructure damage,” Elijah Magnier, a military analyst covering conflicts in the Middle East told Al Jazeera.

“The effectiveness of these weapons in achieving strategic objectives without causing disproportionate harm is impossible”, Magnier added.
