Gaza Forced To Turn Ice Cream Trucks Into Morgues As Death Toll Rises

By Mariam Sarhan On Oct 16, 2023

Gaza’s rising death toll has forced health authorities to store dead bodies in ice cream trucks as morgues run out of space.

Medical officials in the Gaza Strip are now storing dead bodies in freezer trucks as it would be a high risk to transfer the deceased to hospitals.

This comes after Israel’s savage bombardment of Palestine in a brutal retaliation to the Hamas attack. the death toll has now reached 2,750 according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, 724 of them being children and 458 women.

Hospitals in Palestine are now struggling to cope with the increasing numbers of wounded patients and are running short of medical supplies and equipment.
