Palestinians are being pushed into a shrinking zone as a yellow line redraws the region. Satellite imagery briefly published by Israel's mapping service exposed widespread destruction and military bases before being blurred again. Meanwhile, BBC satellite analysis shows more than 1,500 buildings destroyed in Gaza within a single month following the US-brokered ceasefire.

Israel Expands Control in Gaza Despite Cease-Fire
Nearly a year after a formal truce implementation, the Israeli military is permanently taking over territory in the Gaza Strip. Palestinians are being pushed into a shrinking zone as a yellow line redraws the region. Satellite imagery briefly published by Israel's mapping service exposed widespread destruction and military bases before being blurred again. Meanwhile, BBC satellite analysis shows more than 1,500 buildings destroyed in Gaza within a single month following the US-brokered ceasefire. Israel maintains that these bombings comply with the terms of the deal.
Why it matters
The territory has faced extensive devastation, with Google Maps images highlighting widespread destruction during the ongoing war. International legal bodies, including the United Nations and the International Court of Justice, have long regarded Gaza as occupied due to external control. The handling of Gaza crossings and territorial boundaries remains a severe test for peace efforts.
