Hamas returns body of Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas to Red Cross after mix-up
Hamas has handed over the body of Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas to the Red Cross, after initially providing the wrong remains. The mix-up has caused outrage in Israel, with Prime Minister Netanyahu condemning Hamas for the error. Hamas also returned the bodies of Bibas' two young sons and another deceased captive. Israeli forensic experts confirmed that the remains in one coffin did not belong to Shiri Bibas, raising concerns about the ceasefire agreement. In a separate development, Israel has closed the Kerem Shalom crossing for aid deliveries to Gaza, without providing reasons. This closure follows a recent delivery of temporary homes to Gaza, which is a key demand for continuing the ceasefire.
