"Israeli Forces Obliterate Gaza City's Central Archive, Amplifying the Power of Art Amidst a Challenging Year"

Israeli forces have destroyed the central archive of Gaza City, which housed thousands of historical documents, including some over a hundred years old. The bombing of the archive, along with other cultural spaces such as cultural centers, public parks, and the main public library, has been widely condemned as an attempt to erase Palestinian history and heritage. The intentional targeting of important buildings and civilian infrastructure in Gaza has long-term impacts on the besieged enclave's historical heritage and identity.
