IDF confirms Gaza terrorists killed two young brothers, contradicting Hamas claims

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that 10-month-old Kfir Bibas and his 4-year-old brother Ariel were beaten to death by terrorists in Gaza. This contradicts claims from Hamas that the boys died in an airstrike. The children were taken hostage during the October 7, 2023, attack. Their father, Yarden, was released on February 1, 2025. Hamas returned the boys' remains but did not return their mother, Shiri, as agreed. Forensic examinations revealed the boys were murdered, not killed in an airstrike. The IDF stated that Hamas violated the ceasefire agreement by not returning Shiri's body.
