White House Demands "Answers" from Israel after Gaza Hospital Mass Grave Claims
(Times of Israel) After Hamas officials in Gaza claimed to discover a mass grave at a hospital that was the target of a recent IDF raid, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said, "We want answers. We want to see this thoroughly and transparently investigated." Israeli army spokesman Major Nadav Shoshani wrote on X, "Misinformation is circulating regarding a mass grave that was discovered at Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. The grave in question was dug - by Gazans - a few months ago. This fact is corroborated by social media documentation uploaded by Gazans at the time of the burial....Any attempt to blame Israel for burying civilians in mass graves is categorically false and a mere example of a disinformation campaign." The IDF said forces searching for Israeli hostages had examined bodies previously buried by Palestinians near Nasser Hospital and had returned the bodies to where they were buried after they were examined.
