Guterres calls for an 'independent' investigation into mass graves in Gaza

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed "deep concern" on Tuesday over the discovery of mass graves in the main hospitals in the Gaza Strip and called for an independent investigation.

He added, "It is imperative that independent international investigators with forensic expertise are allowed the immediate access to the sites of these mass graves to establish the precise circumstances under which the Palestinians lost their lives and were buried or reburied."
