GAZA, (PIC)
The Civil Defense in the Gaza Strip revealed in a statement on Sunday that around 2,000 Palestinians were reported missing in various areas of the enclave following the Israeli occupation forces’ (IOF) withdrawal from them.
Mahmoud Basal, the spokesman for the Civil Defense, said that more than 150 citizens were killed and about 500 went missing following the IOF withdrawal from Khan Yunis.
He added that the IOF buries dozens of bodies using bulldozers before its withdrawal from any area in the enclave, adding that most of the dead bodies are women and children.
Describing the IOF massacres as ethnic cleansing against the people of Gaza, he said that the IOF strips the citizens before killing them.
Basal said that many of the bodies were buried under the title “anonymous”, adding that the IOF uses weapons unknown before as the bodies “evaporated and turned into ashes.”
The Israeli aggression on the besieged enclave ongoing since October last year has led to the martyrdom of more than 34,000 citizens and the injury of more than 76,000 others.
