He stressed: The occupation forces adopted a scorched earth policy, destroying the Al-Shawka area, as well as the Al-Salam neighborhood, and the camps of Yebna and Western Rafah by more than 80%. Large areas of the neighborhoods of Tel Al-Sultan, Al-Saudi, and the Western Camp were also destroyed, and more than 60% of the Al-Shaboura Camp was destroyed. He pointed out that these are preliminary estimates and will be re-examined after the occupation withdraws from the city's neighborhoods. He sa id: The Rafah Municipality Administration is working to communicate with Arab and international donor agencies to quickly begin rebuilding the infrastructure and destroyed homes after the end of the aggression.
