Excellent free resource: recent satellite imagery of Gaza at about 50cm resolution.

The southern portion was taken in early December (my best guess is ~Dec 5, give or take a few days), the northern part ~a few days earlier.

The new Ukrainian anti-tank landmine is called MPT-23P2.
Modeled on the plastic-cased TM-62P2, it is bigger at 10kg vs 8.8kg.
A new fuze MP-23G appears to be a copy of the Russian MVCh-62 pressure fuze, and the range of other fuzes for TM-62 series can be used with the new mine.
