"Israeli Forces Accused of Desecrating Gaza Cemeteries in Search for Hostages"

TL;DR Summary
Israeli forces have desecrated at least 16 cemeteries in Gaza, with satellite imagery and videos revealing ruined gravestones, upturned soil, and unearthed bodies. The intentional destruction of religious sites violates international law and may amount to war crimes, according to legal experts. While the IDF claims the actions are part of a search for hostages seized by Hamas, evidence suggests cemeteries have been used as military outposts. The desecration has sparked outrage and calls for international intervention to protect Palestinian civilians and uphold the dignity of the dead.
