Gaza teams recover remains of 55 people nearly 3 years after Israeli strike
Civil defence says the recovery reflects a wider search for thousands still missing under Gaza’s rubble as heavy equipment shortages slow burials.
- On Saturday, Gaza Civil Defence concluded an operation in Zeitoun, recovering 55 remains from the Malka family home destroyed in a November 19, 2023, Israeli air strike.
- Recovery efforts remain hindered by chronic shortages of heavy machinery, forcing civil defence teams to rely on manual labor despite the October 10, 2025, ceasefire agreement intended to facilitate equipment entry.
- Thousands of Palestinians gathered on Sunday for a funeral procession for 100 victims recovered from Zeitoun ruins, including members of the Malka family among the deceased.
- Teams are currently targeting 147 destroyed homes across Gaza under the second phase of a project launched July 19, 2026, where an estimated 1,072 remains are believed buried.
- United Nations agencies estimate that between 10,000 and 14,000 people remain missing under rubble across Gaza, as the United Nations Satellite Centre reports 82 percent of buildings destroyed or damaged.
