Health workers in northern Gaza have begun the grim task of exhuming corpses from mass graves in and around Al-Shifa Hospital. They reported that Israeli forces killed hundreds of Palestinians and left their bodies to decompose during a two-week siege of the complex.
According to Gaza Civil Defense spokesperson Mahmoud Basal, at least 381 bodies have been recovered from the vicinity of the complex since Israeli forces withdrew on April 1. This figure does not include individuals buried within the hospital grounds.
