Funeral held in Gaza after crews recover 112 bodies from the site of a deadly 2023 air strike, with many victims still missing beneath rubble.

Hundreds of Palestinians gathered in Gaza City for funeral prayers after rescue teams recovered 112 bodies from the site of a November 2023 Israeli air strike on a residential block in the Sabra neighborhood.

Palestinian officials said the strike killed 308 members of the Abu Sharia and al-Hasayna families, including 40 children, when the building collapsed on residents. Around 153 bodies reportedly remain under the rubble.

The recovery, carried out over roughly two weeks by a 40-person team, was made possible by the ceasefire that has allowed crews access to previously unreachable areas.
