This image depicts a street scene in Deir el-Balah, Palestinian Territory, characterized by extensive structural damage to buildings under a clear, bright sky. In the foreground, on the right, a severely damaged building edge is visible, likely the vantage point of the photograph, showing exposed rebar and concrete fragments. A metal railing obstructs a portion of the view. Piles of rubble and debris, including twisted rebar, are present along the immediate edge of the street. The street, a paved road, extends into the background, with portions illuminated by direct sunlight creating long shadows. On the left side of the street, a multi-story building with a light-colored facade shows significant damage, including missing wall sections exposing interior rooms and balconies. Laundry is visible hanging on some balconies. Three individuals, dressed in dark clothing, walk on the sidewalk adjacent to this building. Further down the street, an individual in a red shirt stands in a sunlit patch of the road. Several light-colored vehicles are parked on the right side of the street. Towards the background, a large structure with a prominent minaret, resembling a mosque, is extensively damaged, with large sections of its walls and roof missing. Other damaged buildings are visible beyond this central structure, and areas appear to be cleared or covered with tarps. Another person in dark clothing is visible further down the street on the right. A tall, dark streetlight pole stands centrally on the left side of the street.
