Simultaneous funeral of 112 martyrs in Gaza; the largest funeral since the start of the war

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: Thousands of Gaza residents participated in the funeral of the martyrs of the two families of "Abu Sharia" and "Al-Husaynah" today; a ceremony that is being referred to as the largest mass funeral since the start of the war in the Gaza Strip.

 

According to published information, the bodies of these martyrs were taken out from a single location. Statistics also show that the number of martyrs and missing persons from these two families in the same location has reached 308; an event that is considered one of the most painful tragedies resulting from the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.

 

Palestinian sources say that the search for the missing and the recovery of the bodies of the martyrs who remained under the rubble are continuing.

 

The ceremony is being held after months of access to the burial sites of the victims due to the intensity of the Israeli military operations and the extensive destruction of the area. Finally, the rescue and civil defense forces managed to remove a number of bodies from under the rubble to prepare for funerals and burials.

 

Meanwhile, the civil defense forces and specialized teams in the Gaza Strip, despite a severe shortage of equipment, machinery and fuel, continue to search for and recover bodies from under the destroyed buildings.

 

Local authorities emphasize that thousands of missing people are still under the rubble in various areas of Gaza.
