GAZA – More bodies were exumed from the Nasser Medical Complex today, several weeks after the Israeli Defence Forces, IDF carried indiscriminate massacre of civilians sheltering in the complex.
At least 73 bodies were today exumed from mass graves in the complex, bringing the total number to 283.
Head of Government Media Office in Gaza, Salama Maarouf made the revelation in a statement.
” For the fourth day, the work of government crews continues to exhume martyrs from the mass grave in the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis, where the bodies of 73 martyrs were recovered today, bringing the total number of bodies recovered since last Friday to 283 martyrs”, he said, adding that the bodies of 42 martyrs were identified, while the rest were not identified, stressing that the occupation army deliberately hid them, buried them deep in sand, and dumped waste on them.
“Some of the bodies of women, the elderly, and also wounded were found, while some of them were handcuffed and stripped of their clothes, which indicates that they were executed in cold blood.
“The fate of about 2,000 citizens who were present in the complex when the occupation army stormed it is still unknown, and their fate is not known if they were arrested or killed and their bodies were hidden”, he said.
According to him, the heinous crime committed by the occupation army by storming the Nasser Medical Complex, storming it twice, and destroying some of its parts, demonstrates the extent of the barbarism of this occupation and the immorality of its army, which destroys all necessities of life and means of survival inside the Gaza Strip.
“This crime is no less than his other crime of killing the sick, the wounded, doctors, and the displaced, arresting them, and concealing their fate.
” We call on the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to investigate this massacre committed by the occupation army in the Nasser Complex and also the Shifa Complex, in all its details, whether against the headquarters of the two complexes or against the citizens, displaced persons, and medical and journalistic personnel inside them”, he said.
