Palestinian sources reported on Sunday that a large crowd attended the funeral of 70 individuals whose remains were recovered from beneath the rubble of destroyed buildings and homes in the Al-Safawi area, north of Gaza City. The Palestinian Wafa news agency stated that citizens and local teams retrieved approximately 70 bodies, 60 of which were identified. The recovery efforts faced significant obstacles, including a lack of necessary equipment and resources for clearing the debris.
Recoveries of bodies from under destroyed buildings continue periodically in the Gaza Strip, with cooperation between local entities and the International Committee of the Red Cross. These efforts are concentrated in areas affected by Israeli shelling across the Gaza Strip. However, the sources indicated that "the occupation prevents the recovery of bodies under destroyed buildings in the area known as the "yellow line," which it controls east of the main Salah al-Din road in the Strip."
