In Gaza, families are slowing returning to their homes, but for many they will find them razed to the ground.

Drone footage reveals the extent of damage to Gaza City caused by the recent conflict with Israeli that lasted 50 days, until a ceasefire was brokered.

Between 8 July and 27 August, more than 2,100 Palestinians were killed in the Gaza Strip, along with 66 Israeli soldiers and seven civilians in Israel.

Last week, Israeli Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz said Israel has "paid a very expensive price... because of the daily barrages of rockets and mortars" from Hamas.

But as Yolande Knell reports, the challenge now for the people of Gaza is rebuilding, but that will not be easy when there is nothing for them to build with.
