Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to bury their relatives, killed in Israeli bombardment, on school grounds in the Maghazi refugee camp instead of taking them to a proper burial site, Al Jazeera reports

“Because of the difficulty of removing bodies from a school there, which serves as an evacuation centre, family members had to bury their relatives on the school grounds, rather than take them to a proper burial site.

“This is how intense the situation is in central Gaza,” says Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Gaza.
