A total of 283 bodies were recovered at Nasser Hospital, of which 42 were identified.
“Among the deceased were allegedly older people, women and wounded, while others were found tied with their hands…tied and stripped of their clothes,” said Ravina Shamdasani, spokesperson for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
“Reports suggest that there were 30 Palestinian bodies buried in two graves in the courtyard of Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City; one in front of the emergency building and the others in front of the dialysis building,” Ms. Shamdasani told journalists in Geneva.
“There are reports that the hands of some of these bodies were also tied,” Ms.
Shamdasani said, adding that there could be “many more” victims, “despite the claim by the Israeli Defense Forces to have killed 200 Palestinians during the Al-Shifa medical complex operation”.

What emotions or thoughts does the thought of victims being stripped and tied invoke in you, especially considering some were elderly or wounded?
@9LRF8NR2yrs2Y
That is so wrong. That shouldn't happen to anyone.
@9LRF3BJ2yrs2Y
That they should probably not do that since that is inhumane.
@9LRDZYR2yrs2Y
First of I don't care for Muslims and they shouldn't have been in the way second of I don't care for Jews either I don't like Palestine and i don't like Israel bring back the holy land of Jerusalem!
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
In reflecting on this incident, how does it shape or challenge your views on the humanity or inhumanity of conflict?
@9LRBX4P2yrs2Y
i find it inhumane that the US government isn’t doing anything to support the people in Gaza as they are victims of ethnic cleansing.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Considering such information, how important do you believe it is for international bodies and communities to intervene or respond to these situations?
@9LRCMLGWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
The concept of the international community's responsibility to act in the face of the gravest human rights violations while respecting the sovereignty of states has been a subject of extensive discussion and deliberation.
How do they know the victims were Palestinian and not former hostages of Hamas?
@PepperTomTranshumanist2yrs2Y
US mainstream media is barely paying attention. Mass graves are not news worthy unlike the "unsafe" and discomfort few students feel in response to peaceful protests on our campuses.
This is why Israel and the US refuse to allow international press into Gaza. They want to be able to say it was not true.
