    This article about stealing organs for transplant concludes by introducing an insinuation of grave robbing or desecration

    On 18 January, the Times of Israel reported that the Israeli army confirmed reports that its soldiers dug up graves in a Gaza cemetery, claiming its soldiers were trying to “confirm that the bodies of hostages were not buried there.”

    Do Israeli soldiers want organs that have been moldering in the ground? For what? Or they just love destroying the bodies of Palestinians? Digging up a grave doesn't sound like my idea of recreation tbh. But If so it sort of disputes the prior paragraphs where bodies were missing organs and they were presumed to be taken for transplant. Maybe they were just doing it for fun. ..... ?

    It seems weird to introduce a completely new topic, one with such emotional salience, right at the end. I'm not familiar with this website or any of the sources it cites other than Times of Israel, and not very. Is it believable?

      Israel digging up cemeteries is something that has been widely documented.

      Here is a CNN report (first hit, and pro-Zionist source) of it from 4 months ago: https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/20/middleeast/israel-gaza-cemeteries-desecrated-investigation-intl-cmd/index.html
