The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza has said a mass grave inside the Al-Shifa Hospital will be dug to bury 100 bodies lying in the hospital, Anadolu Agency reports.

Talking to Al Jazeera Media Network, Palestinian Health Ministry Director General Dr Munir Al-Borsh said Israeli bombing around the hospital has not stopped for three nights.

“There is very violent bombing almost every minute, with the aim of paving the way for entering the (hospital’s) complex,” he said, adding that the Israeli bombing obstructed the entry or exit of ambulances to and from the hospital.

“We are trapped inside the Al-Shifa complex,” he said.
