The Gaza Strip’s government communications office said a third mass grave was found at al Shifa hospital, the largest operating in the Strip before it was put under siege in November and then again in late March . According to local authorities, controlled by Hamas, the bodies of Palestinian people recovered so far are 49.
The discovery in recent days is the third mass grave found in the hospital area and the seventh that local authorities report having found near hospitals in the Strip. In April, for example, a mass grave with at least 180 corpses was discovered in Khan Yunis, one of the cities of the Strip most heavily bombed by Israel during the war that began following the violent attacks by Hamas last October 7, which is located in the southern part of the territory. Again according to the health authorities of the Strip, more than 34 thousand people have been killed so far in the war and several thousand are missing.
