Claim 3: “the attack destroyed homes, personal possessions and livelihoods”
SINGLE SOURCE
One web search result mentions that Israel's actions in Gaza destroyed 190,115 buildings and 330,500 houses. While this supports the general claim of destruction of homes and livelihoods in Gaza, the other results (Homestead strike and lightning insurance) are irrelevant. Since only one relevant source confirms the general context of destruction in Gaza, it is marked as single_source.
