Civil defense and ambulance crews in Gaza retrieved on Saturday the bodies of a number of martyrs from under the rubble of a house belonging to the 'Attallah' family in Gaza City. The house had been destroyed in a previous Israeli airstrike during the ongoing war on the Strip. Local sources reported that rescue crews worked for hours in difficult conditions, amid a severe shortage of equipment needed to remove the rubble, before they were able to reach the bodies and transfer them to one of the city's hospitals for identification and burial. The retrieval operation is part of ongoing efforts to find the bodies of martyrs trapped under the rubble of destroyed homes and facilities in various areas of the Gaza Strip, amid the difficulty of search and rescue operations and the lack of equipment and machinery needed to deal with the scale of destruction. The fate of a number of missing persons in the Strip remains unknown, as search operations continue for bodies believed to still be under the rubble from long periods ago.
