"The remnants are ticking time bombs and pose a danger to the population in the Gaza Strip. We need specialists alongside the teams working in the sector," he added. "We call on the world to send international teams to recover the bodies of the missing. We call on the world to provide the necessary equipment to recover the bodies."
More than 10,000 Palestinian bodies reportedly remain buried beneath the rubble across Gaza after extensive Israeli bombardment, and many homes have become mass graves. UN experts estimate that with 100 trucks it would take seven years to remove all debris across Gaza. Gaza Health Ministry reports at least 68,875 Palestinians killed since October 7, 2023. Civil society spokespeople condemned the absence of an effective international and humanitarian role in recovering missing persons. Officials warn that debris and remnants are ticking time bombs and call for international specialist teams and recovery equipment to retrieve bodies and reduce danger.
