UN calls for probe into mass grave found in Gaza
The UN considers an investigation necessary into the mass graves found in recent days under the rubble of two hospitals in the Gaza Strip, Al-Shifa and Nasser, stressed today Stéphane Dujarric, spokesman for Secretary-General António Guterres.

"We need a clear, credible and transparent investigation," Dujarric said, adding that several UN agencies could be tasked with carrying it out and that in no case should the results of such an eventual probe be prejudged before they are known.
"[But also] We need more journalists to be able to do their work in Gaza safely and report the facts," the UN secretary-general's spokesman added, referring to the information blackout in the Strip, where the Israeli military only allows a few reporters embedded with its troops.
At least 310 bodies have been exhumed from several mass graves in the courtyards of Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, from where Israeli troops withdrew in early April after four months of fighting in the area.
In turn, the mass graves found at Al-Shifa Hospital contained more than 200 bodies.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Thursday that the accusations made by the authorities of the Gaza Strip, a Palestinian enclave controlled by Hamas, about the existence of mass graves at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis are unfounded.
"The claims that the IDF buried bodies of Palestinians are completely unfounded," the Israeli military said in a statement in which it gives its version of the events reported by the Gaza authorities for the first time.
According to the Israeli military authorities, quoted by The Times of Israel, during the period when the IDF was in the medical complex, they examined the remains of bodies buried by Palestinians "as part of the efforts to locate the hostages".
According to the Israeli military, these exhumations were "selective" and were only carried out when there was concrete information indicating that one of the hostages captured by Hamas in early October could be buried in the area.
The Gaza authorities estimate that about 2,000 people are missing following the Israeli attack on the hospital unit.
"It is not known whether they were detained or whether they died and their bodies were hidden," according to the Gaza government.
The ongoing war between Israel and Hamas was triggered by an unprecedented attack by the Palestinian Islamist group on Israeli soil on October 7, 2023, which caused about 1,200 deaths and more than two hundred hostages, according to the Israeli authorities.
In retaliation, Israel launched an offensive in the Gaza Strip that has already caused more than 34,000 deaths, according to Hamas, which has controlled the territory since 2007.
