JAKARTA - The death toll of Palestinian civilians in Gaza as Israeli attacks continues to grow, while dozens of bodies were found in Jabaliya following the withdrawal of Israeli troops.

The Palestinian civilian rescue and defense team in Gaza managed to find 50 bodies from the refugee camp of Jabaliya, northern Gaza, bringing the total number of bodies found since the withdrawal of Israeli occupation troops from the camp to more than 120 people, reported from WAFA June 3.

Earlier, the team found more than 70 bodies on Friday, including 20 children in Jabaliya, where Israeli forces carried out operations for about 20 days.

The search continues on dozens of people missing among the rubble of homes, shelters, schools and hospitals, all of which did not escape Israeli bombings and destruction, including clinics and facilities belonging to the United Nations Aid and Work Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA).

Last week, officials of the civil defense agency north of the Gaza Strip said the destruction in the camp reached 70 percent and caused hundreds of buildings to be destroyed, after Israeli forces withdrew.

"About 70 percent of the Jabaliya camp has been completely destroyed, with 800 houses destroyed," Mahmoud Bassal, a civil defense spokesman north of the Gaza Strip, told The National News.

"Kamp itu tidak layak huni, karena infrastruktur dan pipa air juga telah hancur total," sambungnya.

Separately, health authorities in Gaza announced on Sunday that about 60 people were killed and 220 injured in the past 24 hours, leaving the death toll of Palestinian civilians in the enclave to 36,439 people and 82,627 others injured. The majority of the victims were women and children.

He added that ambulances and rescue teams were still unable to reach the many victims and bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on the streets, as Israeli occupation forces continued to block the movement of ambulances and civilian defense teams.
