Thousands gathered in Gaza for a mass funeral of 112 people whose remains were recovered from rubble of homes destroyed in Israel's 2023 attack on Sabra, Al Jazeera English reported. The burials represented the first large-scale recovery and repatriation of victims from the strike, with families and community members attending to lay the dead to rest.
The recovery of remains came as the conflict continues to devastate Gaza.
