Hamas plans to hand over the bodies of Shiri Bibas and her two sons, who are symbols of the hostage crisis in Israel. Their deaths, claimed by Hamas, have not been confirmed by Israel, leading to skepticism among some family members. In related news, the Israeli military has charged five reservist soldiers with severe abuse of a Palestinian detainee. The charges include violent acts that resulted in serious injuries, occurring at a detention facility established during the conflict.
