AA / Istanbul / Rania Abou Shamala
The Israeli army executed hundreds of displaced, sick and injured people during its raid on the Nasser medical complex in the town of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip in a military operation that lasted four months, according to statements from the Gaza media office this Wednesday evening.
“The depth of the mass graves we found (at Nasser Hospital) confirms that they were dug using large machinery, such as Israeli occupation bulldozers, among other vehicles,” said the head of the Gaza media office, Ismail Al-Thawabteh, at Anadolu.
Al-Thawabteh added that “The Israeli army kidnapped 9 doctors from the Nasser medical complex and took them to an unknown destination, committing a crime of enforced disappearance once morest them.”
Israel has been waging a deadly offensive once morest the Gaza Strip since the cross-border attack launched on October 7, 2023, by the Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas. Tel Aviv says nearly 1,200 people were killed in the Hamas attack.
The toll of the offensive carried out by Israel since then shows 34,183 Palestinians killed and 77,143 others injured, while 85% of the population of Gaza have been forced to move within the territory, in a context of serious shortages of food, drinking water and medicine, and that 60% of the enclave’s infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the United Nations.
Israel continues its murderous war despite the adoption of a Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire, also ignoring the first proceedings brought once morest it before the International Court of Justice for “the crime of genocide”.
