Israeli officials confirmed that Shiri Bibas' remains were not included in the four caskets of hostages released by Hamas. The bodies of her two children, Ariel and Kfir, were positively identified. The Israel Defense Forces stated that this situation represents a "serious violation" by Hamas of the cease-fire agreement. They demanded the return of Shiri Bibas' body along with all hostages.
