At least 2,300 people have been killed, according to Libya’s Ambulance and Emergency Service, but a much higher death toll is feared.

Ten thousand people have been reported missing and about 7,000 injured.

The before images were taken on September 2 and the after images on September 12, according to Planet Labs.
