Gaza authorities find 112 bodies in rubble of enclave
Authorities in Gaza said that they had recovered the remains of another 112 people in rubble, part of daunting operations after more than two years of Israeli strikes.
In the Gaza Strip, authorities discovered 112 bodies buried beneath the rubble, following a second consecutive day of Israeli airstrikes, as per Palestinian health officials. Despite US President Donald Trump's announcement of a breakthrough in the implementation of last year's Gaza ceasefire agreement, the intensified bombing resulted in the highest daily death toll in weeks.
Israeli airstrikes targeted Gaza City in the north, Deir al-Balah in the central region, and the southern area of Khan Younis. The Israeli military claimed that two commanders of Hamas' elite Nukhba force were targeted in one of the strikes. Since the ceasefire was reached in October, at least 1,230 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli strikes, though Hamas has not disclosed the number of combatants among the fatalities.
Hamas has called for an end to the Israeli attacks and the withdrawal of troops from Gaza, as outlined in a 15-point roadmap published by the US-led Board of Peace. However, Hamas remains skeptical about Israel's intentions, accusing it of attempting to impose its will on the territory through intensified strikes.
