Palestinian civil defence crews have uncovered a mass grave inside the Nasser Medical Complex in Gaza’s Khan Younis, with 210 bodies recovered so far, Al Jazeera has learned, as Israel has continued bombardment of the devastated coastal enclave for more than six months. The discovery on Saturday, and continuing into Sunday, comes after the Israeli military withdrew its troops from the southern city on April 7. Much of the Khan Younis is now in ruins after months of relentless Israeli bombardment and heavy fighting. International law experts have told Al Jazeera these could amount to war crimes.

In the past 24 hours, there has been a notable surge in Israeli military offensives, notably targeting the southern regions of Gaza. Reports indicate that at least 17 Palestinians lost their lives in the recent series of Israeli airstrikes on the Rafah district, resulting in the destruction of two residential dwellings. Simultaneously, ongoing explosions have been reported in Khan Younis, with the Israeli military maintaining a blockade on a residential area. The situation remains highly precarious in central areas, particularly at the Nuseirat refugee camp, where civilian casualties have been reported following Israeli bombardment.

People trying to get out of Gaza via the Rafah border crossing with Egypt are being forced to pay thousands of dollars to a network of so-called brokers for exit permits. That’s according to reports published by Le Monde in France. Some Palestinians describe the practice as state-sponsored corruption and are pointing to Israel and Egypt, which control the crossing.

Palestinians fleeing the fighting in Khan Younis are making their way further south. Most of Gaza’s population is crammed into an area at the southernmost tip of the Gaza Strip. Trapped between the sea and the Egyptian border, they have nowhere else to go. Many are living on the streets with little or no access to food, water, medicines or appropriate shelter.

UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron and German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock have issued a joint call for a “sustainable ceasefire” in Gaza. In an op-ed published in the Sunday Times on Sunday, Cameron and Baerbock said that “too many civilians have been killed” in Gaza and the war “cannot drag on and on”. “Israel has the right to defend itself but, in doing so, it must abide by international humanitarian law,” Cameron and Baerbock said. “Israel will not win this war if its operations destroy the prospect of peaceful co-existence with Palestinians. They have a right to eliminate the threat posed by Hamas. But too many civilians have been killed.” […]
A relatively new word in the lexicon of war is ‘domicide.’ It describes the destruction of houses, and other buildings, making the area where they once stood no longer habitable. And the UN says that’s what’s happening in Gaza. Al Jazeera’s Imogen Kimber reports.
