Relatives of Palestinians who have disappeared during Israel's military offensive in the Gaza Strip have been travelling to Nasser hospital in Khan Younis in a desperate search for their bodies, fearing that their family members' remains are among the corpses in the mass graves found around the hospital building.
Palestinian civil defence teams began exhuming bodies outside the Nasser hospital complex in Khan Younis last week after Israeli troops withdrew. A total of 310 bodies have been found, Palestinian officials have said.
Palestinian rescue teams and several UN observation missions also reported the discovery this month of multiple mass grave sites at al-Shifa hospital compound in Gaza City after an Israeli withdrawal.
Officials in Gaza said the bodies at Nasser hospital were of people who had died during the siege. Israel’s military has rejected allegations of mass burials at the hospital, saying it had exhumed corpses in the hope of finding hostages taken by Hamas on 7 October.
