Location: Khan Younis (Gaza) October 16 (ANI): The Israel-Palestine conflict entered day 10 and it is getting worse with each passing day. Reinforcing ‘Operation Iron Swords’, Israel has deployed troops, tanks along the Gaza border. While the Israeli troops continued ground assault, missile strikes killed thousands of civilians in the city. Non-stop strikes have piled up countless dead bodies as shelling knows no difference between minor-adult, human-animals. The rescuers evacuating the deceased from under the rubble of buildings in Khan Younis said that over 1,000 were trapped under the debris. “The airstrikes result in martyrs (deceased people) and injuries. Our crews work on evacuating those injured and moving them to hospitals - while using limited resources. After transporting those injured, we start searching for martyrs. The number of martyrs under the rubble, according to (Gaza’s) Interior ministry, is more than 1,000 bodies,” said Abid Saqir. While the rescuers struggle to extract bodies from under the rubble of buildings, the Israeli military continues to wreck down the already war-torn Gaza City. Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu convened an emergency cabinet meeting and vowed to “demolish Hamas”. Notably, as per Gaza Health Ministry 2,750 Palestinians were killed, and 9,700 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since Oct 7.
