Rescue teams recover 39 bodies of Palestinian martyrs in Gaza amid ceasefire

According to medical sources, the bodies were found in the Rafah area and transferred to the European Hospital in Khan Yunis for identification.
The victims, who were identified as having perished under the rubble, were found after the ceasefire took effect at 11:15 am yesterday. The bodies, many of which were still unidentified, were reported to include skeletal remains and bones of the martyrs who had been buried under the debris of their homes.
The ongoing Israeli assault, which began on October 7, 2023, has left devastating consequences on the Palestinian population. Official sources confirm that at least 46,913 Palestinians have lost their lives, including 17,581 children and approximately 12,048 women. Over 110,750 others have been injured, while nearly 11,000 remain missing under the rubble or on the streets of Gaza.
As the ceasefire temporarily halts hostilities, these tragic recoveries underscore the ongoing human toll of the conflict, highlighting the immense suffering endured by the people of Gaza. The search for the missing continues as the ceasefire offers a brief but much-needed reprieve for the shattered region. (ILKHA)
