"Desperate Search for Answers: Unearthing Truths from Al-Shifa Hospital Mass Graves in Gaza"

Health workers in northern Gaza have exhumed the first corpses from mass graves in and around Al-Shifa Hospital, where they said Israeli forces killed hundreds of Palestinians and left their bodies to decompose during a two-week siege. The bodies were found buried or above ground, with some completely disfigured and unable to be identified. Witnesses and civilians trapped inside the hospital when it was raided described the area as "full of bodies." Israel Defense Forces claimed to have completed operations against terrorist operatives and infrastructure at Al-Shifa, apprehending suspects and eliminating terrorists. The siege has left specialized facilities within the hospital complex out of service, and UN experts accused Israel of denying access to healthcare to those most in need. Palestinians at Al-Shifa are searching for missing family members and demanding to know the fate of their loved ones.
