Israel released 100 dead bodies from Al-Shifa Hospital
Today, Wednesday, dozens of bodies of dead Palestinians were buried in the Khan Yunis area in the Gaza Strip in a mass grave, after they were detained by the Israeli occupation in the Shifa Medical Complex.
This step comes as the Israeli army continues to occupy the Shifa Medical Complex and transform it into a military barracks, a mass grave, and a headquarters for direct killing, according to the government media office in Gaza.
At dawn on Wednesday, the Israeli army stormed the Al-Shifa complex after besieging it for days, as it contains civilians who were displaced from their homes as a result of the ongoing Israeli bombing in the area.
Al-Arabi correspondent from Gaza, Saleh Al-Natour, reported that about 100 bodies of martyrs were released by the occupation from the Shifa Medical Complex and were buried in a mass grave in the Al-Nasmawi neighborhood in the city of Khan Yunis, specifically in the Turkish cemetery.
He explained that these bodies were being held by Israel and are located in the Al-Shifa Medical Complex, adding that they were released with coordination from the International Committee of the Red Cross.
He added that the bodies arrived in a truck and were removed from it to be buried in the cemetery that was dug in the western region of the city of Khan Yunis.
While he pointed out that there are no relatives or acquaintances of the martyrs who were buried, Al-Arabi’s correspondent pointed out that among them are also those whose identity is unknown, and that they also include children, in addition to the presence of body parts inside the bags.
He warned that there is a fear that this matter will also be repeated in the Indonesian Hospital in Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip, which is besieged by the occupation forces, and the medical teams are also unable to deal with a number of martyrs inside the hospital or take them out for burial.
