Palestinians demand international inquiry after mass grave found in Gaza

Al Jazeera  

Bodies of Palestinian detainees who were handcuffed, blindfolded discovered in plastic bags near northern Gaza school. At least 30 bodies were found in “black plastic bags” near the Hamad school in northern Gaza, with Palestinian officials accusing Israeli soldiers of killing the civilians “execution-style”. “The plastic cuffs were used on their hands and legs and cloths straps around their eyes and heads.” Hamas said human rights organisations should “document” the mass grave. Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum, reporting from Rafah in southern Gaza, said the “condition of these bodies ranges from severely decomposed to mere skeletal remains … making it hard to identify them”. The Foreign Ministry said the discovery of the mass grave was evidence of the forms of “genocide committed by the occupation forces against our people in the Gaza Strip without accountability or oversight”.
