Looks like a sealed lead acid battery to me that ran out of power half way. You need to freeze frame to see it.

So it seems it was intended to shred the entire thing...

I suppose that all framed BANKSY paintings/frames will be X-rayed from now, on.

Interesting story about a 'Banksy' painting that was done on a door [only-thing-standing]... on a otherwise 'destroyed home' in the Gaza Strip...
