Hamas returns four bodies to Israel including two children from October attack
Hamas has returned four bodies to Israel, including two young children, Kfir and Ariel Bibas, who were taken during the October 7, 2023, attack. Their mother, Shiri Bibas, was not among the remains returned, contrary to initial reports. The bodies were handed over in Khan Younis, Gaza Strip, amid a gathering of supporters. The Israeli Defense Forces confirmed the identification process for the remains, which could take up to two days. This handover comes as negotiations for a ceasefire continue, with Hamas planning to release more hostages and bodies in the coming days. The situation remains tense, with ongoing discussions about the future of hostages and the conflict.
