Large crowds turned out in Gaza City for a mass funeral for 112 people, mostly women and children, who were killed in an Israeli strike on a residential block in late 2023, early in the Gaza war.

The bodies - belonging to members of two extended families - have only recently been recovered from under the rubble in a two-week-long operation.

Dramatic footage showed the remains lined up in rows, each victim covered with a Palestinian flag and some with a photo of the dead, before relatives carried them away.

The funeral is said to be the biggest of its kind to have taken place in Gaza.
