People buried alive at al-Shifa Hospital: Gaza health official

Director of the Gaza Emergency Operations Centre Motasem Salah has said medics recovered more than 50 bodies from the mass grave at the medical complex, Al Jazeera reports.

“There were also bodies in the reception and emergency department. Part of the department was completely demolished, and the rubble and debris were moved over the patients,” Salah said in a video message.

“The bodies we found were on beds at the reception and emergency department, meaning Israel destroyed the department over the heads of sick and injured people — and they were buried alive.”
