On the 280th day of war: the bodies of 60 Palestinians were recovered from Gaza City
The Israeli occupation continues its land, sea and air aggression against the Gaza Strip for the 280th day in a row.
On Friday morning, ambulance and rescue crews recovered the bodies of about 60 citizens from the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood and the southern Rimal and Industrial areas in Gaza City, after a partial withdrawal of the occupation forces following a ground invasion about a week ago.
Medical sources at the National Arab “Baptist” Hospital in Gaza reported that the bodies of 56 dead Palestinians had been recovered from the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood and the Industrial Area by 10 a.m.
Ambulance crews recovered the bodies of 5 dead from inside the Patient’s Friends Hospital, west of Gaza City.
Local sources reported that occupation snipers are still deployed in the areas surrounding the Finance Roundabout and the Tal Al-Hawa neighborhood, targeting citizens who are trying to return to the area to inspect the destruction that has befallen their homes.
Eyewitnesses reported difficult and tragic scenes of dozens of dead bodies lying on the ground and under the rubble of destroyed homes in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood and the industrial area, in addition to the major destruction caused to the infrastructure, and the occupation forces setting fire to many homes before they withdrew.
In Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, two citizens were killed in bombing by occupation drones on the Tal Al-Sultan neighborhood. A number of citizens were also injured in raids and violent artillery shelling launched by the occupation on the north of the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, and they were transferred to Al Awda Hospital.
The number of dead as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since the seventh of last October has risen to 38,345 dead, in addition to 88,295 wounded, an infinite toll, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads and ambulance and rescue crews are unable to reach them.
Israel continues its war, ignoring the UN Security Council resolutions to stop it immediately, and the orders of the International Court of Justice to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and improve the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza.
