Gaza’s civil defense crews continue exhuming human remains from a mass grave at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis as grieving relatives collect bodies wrapped in white shrouds. At least 210 bodies have been recovered so far, rescue workers say.

Resident Umm Mohammed al-Harazeen came to the hospital hoping for news of her husband. He has been missing since Israeli forces entered Khan Younis months ago. “We have been searching for him, but to no avail.”

The US Campaign for Palestinian Rights denounced the killings on social media. “These mass graves are obvious evidence of genocide and the most unthinkable war crimes,” it said.

The group noted news of the mass killings came as the US House of Representatives approved a bill for $14bn in military aid “while Israel threatens a full scale ground invasion to massacre Palestinians in Rafah”.
