Gaza Health to dig mass grave inside compound of Al-Shifa Medical Complex to bury 100 people

GAZA, Nov. 11 (YPA) – Gaza Health announced that it was decided to dig a mass grave inside the compound of Al-Shifa Medical Complex to bury 100 wounded who died in the besieged complex, which its vicinity  has been  subjected to continuous Zionist bombardment.

The Director General of the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Munir al-Barsh, confirmed at dawn on Saturday that the Israeli occupation wants to achieve an imaginary victory by taking pictures of its forces from Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.

Al-Barsh told Al Mayadeen that the direct Israeli bombing of Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza has been ongoing persistently for three days.

The Director General also pointed out that the martyrs’ families are unable to bury their loved ones because they simply cannot leave the hospital.

Al-Barsh pointed out that the only option they have is to stand strong, adding that they are coming up with whatever tools available to help the sick and wounded.

He continued: “We cannot bury the dead who died in hospital. “We want to dig a mass grave in the morning inside al-Shifa to bury the 100 bodies now dumped in the hospital.”

The media sources reported  that  the Israeli occupation army opened fires  towards the building of Al-Quds Hospital, southwest of Gaza City, and cut communication  with those in Al-Shifa complex.

At dawn on Friday, the Israeli occupation forces targeted a number of hospitals in the Gaza Strip, including Al-Shifa Complex, Al-Rantisi Specialized Hospital for Children and the Indonesian Hospital.

For his part, Martin Griffiths, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, said the Israeli war on Gaza Strip hospitals must stop.

Griffiths said in a pot on his X account that “horrific reports of the bombing of Shifa Hospital in Gaza today confirm that the lives of thousands of patients, workers and displaced people are at risk.”
