JERUSALEM (AP) — After 11 weeks of war in Gaza, the Israeli military campaign against Hamas now sits among the deadliest and most destructive in recent history.

A data analyst says that “Gaza is now a different color from space” as a result of the bombardment and shelling.

But from blast fragments found on-site and their analyses of strike footage, experts are confident that the vast majority of the bombs dropped on Gaza are U.S.-made.
