Gaza residents held funeral rites for more than 100 bodies, including approximately 70 children, Shehab Wire reported. Civil defense crews recovered the remains from beneath rubble of homes destroyed in the Zeitoun neighborhood, located southeast of Gaza City, roughly three years ago.
The recoveries underscore ongoing efforts to retrieve bodies from sites of prior destruction across the densely populated enclave. Families have continued to search for relatives missing since earlier periods of conflict, with rescue operations periodically uncovering remains buried under collapsed residential structures throughout Gaza's neighborhoods.
