Hamas returned the remains of Shiri Bibas, an Israeli mother, after initially misidentifying her body as that of a Palestinian woman. Her family confirmed her identity following tests conducted by Israel's Institute of Forensic Medicine. The return of the correct remains came after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the earlier misidentification as a violation of the ceasefire agreement. He vowed to ensure accountability for the deaths of Bibas and her sons. Despite ongoing tensions, Israel and Hamas continued exchanging hostages and prisoners. Hamas is set to release six hostages at the Rafah border to the Red Cross.
