Two years of war between Israel and Hamas have left the main city of the Gaza Strip all but destroyed.

Drone footage captured on Wednesday shows entire neighborhoods in Gaza City reduced to rubble.

Streets are unrecognizable and once-bustling markets are now just twisted metal and concrete.

With a ceasefire in place, Palestinians have been returning to what remains of their homes and communities.

They could be seen on Wednesday, walking past collapsed buildings as they tried to find fragments of their past lives.
