The statement added that the explosion of a car bomb containing 6-7 tons of TNT is approximately equivalent to the energy released by a natural earthquake of magnitude 3.7 on the Richter scale.

According to the statement, the explosion of car bombs causes severe shaking that reaches buildings located several kilometers from the epicenter and lasts for several seconds, just like natural earthquakes.

The human rights organization adds that the use of car bombs to completely destroy residential neighborhoods on this scale and scale is an unprecedented crime in human history.

According to the report, the catastrophic impact of car bombs is not limited to material destruction, but is also used as a tool to psychologically intimidate civilians in order to forcibly displace them from their residential areas.

The statement concluded by emphasizing that the weakness of the international community and the complicity of some of its actors have enabled the Zionist army to openly continue the crime of destroying Gaza City.
