How to append <img> as a <li> to a <ul>

Question

I've created a forEach loop that is collecting the urls of 10 gifs and I want to append them to a I currently have in my html on line 33. I have to display the gifs on the page. I'm currently getting a list of the urls. Is there a way I can have a list of images on the page keeping most of the code I currently have? From line 55 down is my forEach loop where I am trying to appendChild.

const button = document.querySelector("#search-btn");
button.addEventListener("click", (event) => {
  event.preventDefault();

  const giffTitle = document.querySelector("#giffTitle").value;

  axios;
  const giffSection = document.querySelector(".giffs");
  const giffList = document.querySelector(".list");

  axios
    .get(
      `https://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/search?api_key=iVwoS0brONsmkA6sWVqHgJ9D7g2WYDmv&q=${giffTitle}&limit=10&offset=0&rating=g&lang=en`
    )
    .then((res) => {
      const giff = res.data;
      // const giffUrl = giff.data[0].embed_url;
      const giffUrl = giff.data;
      console.log(giffUrl);

      giffUrl.forEach(function(singleGiff) {
        let img = document.createElement("li");
        img.textContent = singleGiff.embed_url;
        giffList.appendChild(img);
        console.log(singleGiff.embed_url);
      });
    });
});

<h1>Giffs</h1>
<form action="">
  <label for="">Search</label>
  <input type="text" id="giffTitle" />
  <button id="search-btn">Search</button>
</form>
<iframe id="iframe" src="${giffUrl}" width="480" height="270" frameborder="0" class="giphy-embed" allowfullscreen></iframe>

<section class="giffs"></section>
<ul class="list"></ul>

I've edited to end to:

giffUrl.forEach(function (singleGiff) {
              let img = document.createElement("img");
              img.src = singleGiff.embed_url;
              let list = document.createElement("li");

              list.appendChild(img);
              giffList.appendChild(list);
              console.log(singleGiff.embed_url);
            });

and the output is a list of broken images.

You need both a new li and img element. And if you would like to present the GIF itself you should set the src attribute of the image to singleGiff.images.downsized.url.

const button = document.querySelector("#search-btn");
button.addEventListener("click", (event) => {
  event.preventDefault();

  const giffTitle = document.querySelector("#giffTitle").value;

  axios;
  const giffSection = document.querySelector(".giffs");
  const giffList = document.querySelector(".list");

  axios
    .get(
      `https://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/search?api_key=iVwoS0brONsmkA6sWVqHgJ9D7g2WYDmv&q=${giffTitle}&limit=10&offset=0&rating=g&lang=en`
    )
    .then((res) => {
      const giff = res.data;
      // const giffUrl = giff.data[0].embed_url;
      const giffUrl = giff.data;
      //console.log(giffUrl);

      giffUrl.forEach(function(singleGiff) {
        let li = document.createElement("li");
        let img = document.createElement("img");
        img.src = singleGiff.images.downsized.url;
        li.appendChild(img);
        giffList.appendChild(li);
      });
    });
});
