Palestinians rushed to cemeteries to visit relatives killed in Israel’s attacks on besieged Gaza with the start of a humanitarian pause in the devastated enclave, TRT World reports.

Many Palestinians visited the cemetery located in the Tel al Sultan neighbourhood in the west of Rafah on Friday, with a capacity of 500, but where 600 are buried due to constraints.

Those who lost loved ones in Israel’s attacks or due to problems arising from the restrictions on the entry of medicine and fuel, shed tears and offered prayers.

The bodies of Palestinians killed in Israeli strikes are buried in a mass grave, after they were transported from Al Shifa hospital in Gaza City for burial, in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip. — Reuters
