Israel destroyed over 90% of homes and leveled more than 20,000 buildings and over 50,000 housing units. It wiped out 22 of 24 water wells and disabled most of the water distribution system, cutting off access to drinking water for tens of thousands.

Israeli forces dismantled over 85% of the sewage network and bulldozed 320 kilometers of roads. They bombed 12 medical centers, 8 schools, and over 100 mosques. They also flattened tens of thousands of dunums of farmland and destroyed all greenhouses and trees.

Now the nightmare is back -they must flee again.
