US Demands Transparent Investigation on Mass Graves in Gaza


The United States of America called on the Israeli entity’s settlement authorities to provide “answers” after reports of “mass graves” at the Gaza Strip’s two main hospitals, which sparked international demands for a comprehensive investigation.

According to local sources, Gaza’s Civil Defence agency said Tuesday that health workers had uncovered around 340 bodies over the past four days of people killed and buried by Israeli occupation forces at a hospital in Khan Younis.

In addition, “reports suggest that there were 30 Palestinian bodies buried in two graves in the courtyard of Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.” White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said that they want answers and a comprehensive and transparent investigation into this matter, affirming the need to understand the circumstances that led to these tragic incidents to ensure that they are not repeated.

The discovery of the bodies prompted the UN to call for an independent investigation, and this call was supported by the European
Union, which stressed the importance of transparency and justice in dealing with these sensitive issues.
