Talk:Nasser Hospital siege

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 28 April 2024

edit

This is a request to edit confusing language regarding "discovery of a mass grave". Please change the following text: "In late April, a mass grave containing nearly 300 bodies was discovered following the withdrawal of Israeli forces earlier in the month, according to Gazan civil defence workers". to: "In late April, following the withdrawal of Israeli forces earlier in the month, Gazan civil defence workers exhumed nearly 300 bodies from the mass grave in the compound".

The use of "discovered" would imply that previously (before late April) no such site was known to exist in the compound. This is contradicted by known facts previously referenced in the article: "Israeli soldiers entered the hospital on 15 February 2024. The soldiers entered from the south, destroying displaced people's tents and bulldozing a mass grave". The sources couldn't have referenced "bulldozing a mass grave" in February 2024 if it hadn't been an existing and known site at the time. Geolocation efforts have since confirmed that the mass grave "discovered" following the withdrawal of Israeli forces is the same site that was known to be used for mass burial before the forces entry into the compoundAnalysts debunk Hamas claims that Israel dug mass graves at Nasser hospital. 188.191.227.201 (talk) 23:00, 28 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
