The before pictures were taken when the sun was lower. Shadowing highlights which buildings are standing.
The lighting in the after pics make it look worse than perhaps it really is. Some buildings are obviously destroyed. Most, it is not possible to say for sure.
Yes, I note one photo was of a ballistic missile strike also. Journalism schools must take everyone else’s flunkies.
Sandbags in the mosque too. Israel should remove Al-Aqsa and just point at Allepo as a precedent.
