Palestinian Civil Defense teams announced that the bodies of 48 Palestinians who were killed at the Israeli bombardment of Shifa Hospital and buried in its garden have been exhumed.

Thirty-eight of the bodies were reportedly identified by their families but the rest could not be unidentified and were taken to the Health Ministry’s Forensic Medicine Unit.

“We came to Shifa Hospital escaping Israeli airstrikes. During the hospital siege, an Israeli sniper killed my 29-year-old son Mazen Abu Aita. The Israeli army took us out of the hospital and I do not know where my son’s body is. Some family members told me he was buried in a mass grave, but I do not know where he is,” said a woman named Muna Abu Aita, urging authorities to help seeking for his son.

There were a total of 160 bodies buried in the hospital garden and the process of moving them would take several days, said the Palestinian Civil Defense.
