Israel has returned the bodies of 88 Palestinians who were martyred in the Gaza Strip, but the Palestinians have refused to bury them without confirmation. The Ministry of Health of Gaza has demanded that Israel first reveal the identity of these bodies and also provide details of the places of martyrdom.
These bodies were transported to Gaza through a container controlled by Israel, but Palestinian officials said that Israel did not provide details about those killed. He has also asked the International Red Cross to seek details from Israel.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health says that the bodies have been sent back so that the heirs can identify them in the light of the information. After that, the burial phase will come.
Health Ministry official Al-Thawaba said that the Red Cross has stated that it has nothing to do with the transfer of dead bodies. Adherence to international laws is a must. The martyrs and their heirs should be respected.
