South Africa 'appalled' by reports of mass graves at Gaza hospitals

South Africa has called for investigations into the reported mass graves discovered at Gaza's two biggest hospitals. 

Pretoria's Department of International Relations said it was "appalled by the recent grim discovery" at al-Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, where hundreds of bodies of Palestinians were discovered following the withdrawal of Israeli forces, according to public broadcaster SABC.

"The South African government says these grim findings call for immediate and comprehensive investigations to ensure justice and accountability," SABC reported.
