Rescue and ambulance crews today recovered the bodies of 73 martyrs from a mass grave at Nasser Medical Hospital, bringing the total number of civilians whose bodies have been found so far to 283 persons.

The bodies were found following Israeli forces withdrawal from the city, according to local sources.

Additionally, the majority of the bodies belonged to civilians from different ages and that the occupation forces killed them during their storming of the complex and buried them collectively inside it.

According to security sources, the majority of martyrs who had been buried in mass graves were women and children.

The occupation forces deliberately razed dozens of bodies and buried them before withdrawing from any area in Gaza Strip.

Earlier yesterday, the Civil Defense in Gaza announced that it had recovered the bodies of 210 martyrs who had been buried in a mass grave by the Israeli occupation forces inside the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 7, 2023, has resulted in 34,151 documented Palestinian fatalities so far, with the majority being children and women.
