   Palestinian civil defense discovered hundreds of bodies buried by   
   Israeli forces in a mass grave inside the complex of Khan Younis'   
   Nasser Medical Complex on Saturday.   
      
   Rescue workers said they had removed at least 200 bodies as of 12:00   
   pm local time on Sunday, and they estimated that at least another 200   
   remained, Middle East Eye reported.   
      
   "We found corpses without heads, bodies without skins, and some had   
   their organs stolen," the director-general of the Government Media   
   Office said in a statement shared by Quds News Network.   
      
   "Following the mass graves at Al-Shifa hospital, it looks like Israel   
   is a voracious death machine turning hospitals in Gaza into   
   graveyards."   
      
   The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) withdrew from Khan Younis on April 7.   
   While they occupied the city, they stormed the Nasser Medical Complex   
   in February, arresting several doctors, damaging the structure with   
   shelling, and rendering it unable to function as a hospital.   
      
   Al Jazeera reporter Hani Mahmoud said the bodies found in the Nasser   
   grave included children, young men, and older women. Rescues said that   
   some of the bodies they found had been buried with their hands tied   
   behind their backs, according to Middle East Eye.   
      
   "Our teams continue their search and retrieval operations for the   
   remaining martyrs in the coming days as there are still a significant   
   number of them," Palestinian emergency services said in a statement   
   shared with Al Jazeera.   
      
   The news came as the U.S. House of Representatives voted on Saturday   
   to send another $26 billion to Israel, including for military aid.   
      
   "These mass graves are obvious evidence of genocide and the most   
   unthinkable war crimes. And yet, the House just signed off on $26   
   billion in weapons to fuel the genocidal Israeli military, while   
   Israel threatens a full scale ground invasion to massacre Palestinians   
   in Rafah," the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights said on social   
   media.   
      
   This is not the first mass grave that has been discovered near a Gaza   
   Strip hospital since Israel began its devastating bombardment and   
   invasion following Hamas' deadly October 7 attack on southern Israel.   
   When the IDF withdrew from the al-Shifa hospital earlier this month,   
   Palestinian journalist Hossam Shabat reported seeing hundreds of dead   
   bodies outside the hospital, many that had had their hands and legs   
   bound and their bodies run-over by bulldozers. Al Jazeera reported   
   that several mass graves were found near al-Shifa.   
      
   "Following the mass graves at Al-Shifa hospital, it looks like Israel   
   is a voracious death machine turning hospitals in Gaza into   
   graveyards. Wake up world!" Palestinian politician and activist Hanan   
   Ashrawi wrote on social media.   
      
   Muhammad Shehada, the communications chief for Euro-Med Human Rights   
   Monitor, expressed shock that there was not more media coverage of the   
   Nasser grave.   
      
   "I CANNOT find a single headline in any mainstream media about this!"   
   Shehada wrote on social media. "Imagine it was Ukraine? or Israel?"   
      
   Over the weekend, the the Gaza Health Ministry reported that the death   
   toll from Israel's war on Gaza surpassed 34,000, though this is likely   
   an undercount since several people remain trapped beneath rubble.
