Gaza officials report thousands of Palestinians remain trapped under rubble after two-year Israeli military campaign

Gaza officials say thousands of Palestinians remain buried under collapsed buildings following Israel's more than two-year military campaign in the territory, which has destroyed large sections of residential areas. Survivors frequently return to find their homes demolished with no remains of family members available for burial or proper farewell. The scale of destruction has left families unable to locate or recover bodies of deceased relatives. This represents a persistent humanitarian and psychological crisis affecting Gaza's civilian population.
