The Civil Defense in the Gaza Strip announced on Wednesday the recovery of five bodies from the Gaza and North Governorates, along with five more from the southern governorates on Tuesday.

The total number of martyrs recovered since the implementation of the ceasefire last Sunday has risen to 153, according to the Civil Defense. 

On Tuesday, the Government Media Office in Gaza released an updated report detailing key statistics from the 470-day genocidal war waged by the Israeli occupation against the Gaza Strip, which began on October 7, 2023.

The report revealed that the occupation carried out approximately 10,100 massacres, resulting in the martyrdom of around 61,182 individuals, including missing persons, and over 110,725 injuries reported by hospitals, according to the Ministry of Health.

Palestinians in Gaza returning to nothing after war: FT

A ceasefire that took effect on Sunday finally permitted some to return. Yet, from Rafah in the south to Jabalia in the north, the sense of relief was overshadowed by the magnitude of the devastation.

As reported by the Financial Times, roads, shops, and parks had been replaced with fields of sand, twisted metal, and crumbling concrete, symbolizing a profound loss of the life they once knew.

The 15-month war has inflicted unprecedented devastation on Gaza, surpassing the impact of any prior Israeli offensive. According to Palestinian health authorities, approximately 47,000 people have been killed since "Israel" initiated its assault on the enclave on October 7, 2023.

Approximately 1.9 million of Gaza's 2.3 million residents have been displaced. According to the UN, 92 percent of homes have been destroyed or damaged, leaving the territory buried under more than 50 million tons of rubble. Clearing the debris is estimated to take up to 21 years and cost around $1 billion.

Palestinians returning to their abandoned neighborhoods are discovering the bodies of loved ones buried beneath the rubble of their homes.

Gaza’s Civil Defense authority estimates that 10,000 bodies remain trapped under the debris.
