Israel accuses Hamas of violating ceasefire by returning unidentified body instead of Shiri Bibas

Hamas returned an unidentified body instead of Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas during a handover of remains, violating a ceasefire agreement. The Israeli military confirmed the return of two deceased children, Kfir and Ariel Bibas, but the third body did not match Shiri's identity. The military condemned Hamas's actions as a serious violation and demanded the return of Shiri along with all hostages. The handover occurred amid tensions, including a suspected terror attack in Israel and ongoing negotiations involving Qatar, Egypt, and the U.S. The ceasefire, which began in January, is now at risk. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio expressed strong condemnation of Hamas, emphasizing the need to return all hostages.
