Gaza: Rescue teams announced on Monday that they had recovered the remains of 99 Palestinians from the rubble of a home belonging to the Abu Sharia and Al-Hassayneh families in the Sabra neighborhood, south of Gaza City.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, the home had been struck in a series of Israeli airstrikes at different times, including one on June 7, 2025, and another during October 2023. These airstrikes resulted in the killing of dozens of Palestinians, while the bodies of others remained trapped under the rubble.
The rescue teams have highlighted that search and recovery operations continue to face significant challenges due to the extensive destruction and the severe lack of resources. They noted that thousands of victims are still believed to be buried beneath the rubble of destroyed buildings across the Gaza Strip.
Official data indicates that the bodies of approximately 8,000 Palestinians remain trapped under the rubble in various parts of the Gaza Strip. Many targeted sites remain inaccessible, and rescue efforts continue to be hindered by shortages of equipment and heavy machinery.
