In Gaza City's Shati refugee camp, Hani Al-Dhaifi mourns the loss of his wife and children, still buried under rubble after an Israeli airstrike. Despite appeals to rescue teams, he lacks the machinery to recover their bodies.
It's estimated that approximately 10,000 dead Palestinians remain trapped beneath debris. With limited resources, only easily accessible bodies are being retrieved.
Al-Dhaifi, like many, cannot begin to grieve without a proper burial.
