After months of Israeli aerial and ground attacks, much of the Port of Gaza has been devastated.
Middle East Eye's reporter Mohammed al-Hajjar visited the port Tuesday to assess the damage.
Most fishing equipment and boats had been destroyed, he said, with buildings near the harbour area left in ruins.
