Bulldozers clear rubble in Gaza City
Rebuilding Gaza from the ground up is a task of almost unimaginable scale, but for Palestinians determined to return to their lives, there is no time to waste.
Bulldozers are already out clearing the rubble to make way for returnees to reach what is left of their homes.
Some 41,000 housing units have been destroyed in Gaza City alone.
This translates into more than 8 million cubic metres (283 million cubic feet) of rubble.
