Palestinian civil defence teams have recovered the bodies of 409 people since Israeli troop withdrawal from al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City and the southern city of Khan Younis, local authorities have said.
The Israeli Army withdrew from al-Shifa Hospital on April 1 following a two-week raid and from Khan Younis on April 7, leaving behind a massive trail of destruction, TRT World reports.
The Palestinian Civil Defence Agency said that efforts were still ongoing to retrieve more bodies from both areas.
Meanwhile, the Palestinian death toll from Israeli attacks on Gaza has reached 33,360 since last October, the Gaza Health Ministry said.
In a statement, the ministry said at least 75,993 others have also been injured in the deadly offensive.
“At least 153 people were killed and 60 others injured in Israeli attacks in the last 24 hours,” the ministry said.
“Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads and rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
In another development, as ceasefire talks continue, anger rages in Gaza over the international response that has allowed war to continue as Palestinians grapple with the danger of Israeli bombs, starvation and the psychological scars of both.
Hope remains, no matter how small, that a ceasefire will happen, but the anger is stronger.
