Description
As the Gaza war death toll soars and space runs out in cemeteries, burial workers in one of Deir el-Balah's largest graveyards find themselves forced to dig new graves on top of existing ones. "I've been through the wars of 2008, 2014, 2012, 2019 and 2021 but I've never seen so much death," says Saadi Hassan Baraka who has been a burial worker for nearly 28 years. After more than 10 months of war, the health ministry in the Hamas-run territory has announced that the death toll has crossed 40,000. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
