Gaza's cemeteries are overwhelmed as families recover bodies after the October 2025 ceasefire, with over 73,000 Palestinians killed since the war began. More than 40 cemeteries have been destroyed, and burial costs have risen to 700-1,000 shekels ($235-$335). Authorities are seeking new burial grounds as existing ones reach capacity.
