The Zionist terror regime won't let journalists in to Gaza to film the wasteland they've created. They won't even let journalists film from the air. So the only way to see the effects of this Holocaust is from space.

Meanwhile resistance fighters inflict significant losses to Israels invasion forces in Khan Younis and other places, as the rubble provides similar if not better cover for infantry.

EDIT: See for instance an Israeli tank/troop transporter being blown up, as a fighter moved through the rubble and threw an explosive into the open hatch of the armored vehicle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtQ3IMGCKy0

This lesson was learned by the Nazis already in Stalingrad, yet another similarity between then and now. https://mwi.westpoint.edu/urban-warfare-project-case-study-1-battle-of-stalingrad/

While the Luftwaffe tried to resupply the 6th Army the Soviets now went on the offensive, the intensity of fighting within the city becoming more violent. Hundreds of “shock groups” consisting of fifty to a hundred soldiers broke into small groups to fight as highly lethal and lightly armed infantry-engineer squads of three to five personnel, moving swiftly and silently throughout the rubble or “hugging” the Germans near the frontlines to avoid the effectiveness of German airpower and artillery. Dozens of snipers took advantage of the destruction to find nearly perfect firing positions. Snipers successfully killed hundreds of German soldiers, providing a psychological boost to the Soviets while lowering German morale tremendously. Soviet tanks were used in a way that would unnerve armor crews of today: instead of being used for maneuver they were dug deep into the rubble, camouflaged, and used as pillboxes, their carefully prepared positions remaining unseen until they fired the first shot from just a short distance away. These tactics took a devastating toll on German personnel and vehicles over the following months.

So either the "most moral army in the world" and "most powerful army in the Middle East" is too incompetent to know about one of the most famous battles of the 20th century, or it is yet another piece of evidence that Israels goals was never to destroy Hamas, but to genocide the civilian population of Gaza.
