GAZA: Hundreds of Palestinians on Sunday took part in the funerals of 70 people whose bodies were recovered by Palestinian civil defense teams from beneath the rubble of destroyed homes in the Beit Lahia and Jabalia refugee camp areas in northern Gaza. The victims had been killed in intense Zionist airstrikes targeting residential blocks in those areas during the first months of the war on the Gaza Strip.

In a statement, the civil defense said its teams had managed to recover 70 bodies out of approximately 160 that had been reported missing beneath the rubble of targeted homes in western Beit Lahia and Jabalia. It said the recovery operations took approximately 231 hours of work.

The statement added that the search and recovery operations were carried out using an excavator, digging equipment and two transport trucks, as part of an extension of the second phase of a project funded by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and implemented by the civil defense in the Central Gaza and Gaza governorates.

Large numbers of Palestinians attended the funeral processions held following the recovery of the bodies from beneath the rubble of 20 residential buildings destroyed in Zionist airstrikes. Meanwhile, the bodies of around 90 other victims remain missing beneath the rubble, as civil defense teams continue their efforts to locate and recover them. — KUNA
