According to the UN’s Satellite Center, 90 percent of buildings within the buffer zone were damaged or destroyed. The destruction of thousands of buildings for this project is viewed by the international community as potentially constituting a war crime

The report examined the destruction and damage caused to buildings within a kilometer of the Israeli border, where the army is methodically demolishing structures.

The actual number in the buffer zone could be higher. Haaretz recently published an analysis indicating that the damage from the project extends 1,200 meters from the border, which is 200 meters further than the area the report analyzed.
