From a Washington Post story by Steve Hendrix headlined “A midnight trip into norther Gaza reveals a shattered warscape”:

GAZA CITY — To enter Gaza now is to arrive in hell.

On Saturday night, I crossed through the broken barrier between Israel and Gaza in the back of an Israeli military jeep, going fast without lights under a crescent moon. Before the breach, I was just able to make out the bullet-riddled cars by the roadside, some of the hundreds of civilian vehicles attacked by Hamas fighters who poured through this same fence on Oct. 7.
