KHAN YUNIS: Rescue and medical crews retrieved this morning the bodies of over 50 victims buried by the Israeli occupation army in a mass grave in the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, during the Israeli invasion of the hospital about two months ago.
According to media sources, rescue and ambulance crews have so far retrieved more than 150 martyrs from the mass grave after the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation forces from the city.
Currently, an estimated 500 persons have been missing in the aftermath of the Israeli invasion of Khan Yunis and the ensuing massacres in the city, while a total of nearly 2,000 have been unaccounted for after the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation forces from several areas of the Strip.
The sources pointed out that the bodies retrieved belong to individuals from various groups and ages, killed by the occupation forces during their raid on the complex and buried in a mass grave inside the complex.
The majority of the martyrs retrieved so far fr
om mass graves across the Gaza Strip are women and children, as the Israeli occupation forces have been deliberately field-executing Palestinian civilians or crushing them to death by bulldozers and subsequently burying them in hospital yards or elsewhere.
