Aerial footage shows widespread destruction in Gaza after ceasefire
SHOTLIST: GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE (OCT. 17, 2025) (ANADOLU - ACCESS ALL) 1. VARIOUS DRONE SHOTS OF WIDESPREAD DESTRUCTION AROUND POND IN GAZA'S SHEIKH RADWAN NEIGHBORHOOD GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE - OCT. 17: Aerial footage captured on Friday, Oct. 17, showed extensive destruction left by Israeli forces in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City following the army’s withdrawal after a ceasefire agreement. Located in the northeastern part of Gaza City, the area’s residential buildings were reduced to rubble, while others were rendered uninhabitable by heavy shelling. The footage also revealed that infrastructure across the district had been completely devastated during Israel’s military operations in the Gaza Strip. The deal was reached between Israel and Hamas last week, based on a plan presented by US President Donald Trump. Phase one included the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. The plan also envisages the rebuilding of Gaza and the establishment of a new governing mechanism without Hamas. Since October 2023, Israeli attacks have killed nearly 68,000 Palestinians in Gaza, most of them women and children, and rendered it largely uninhabitable.
