Israeli military says body returned by Hamas is not Shiri Bibas
bbc.com —
The Israeli military announced that a body returned by Hamas is not Shiri Bibas, a hostage taken during the October 2023 attacks. This contradicts Hamas's claim regarding the identity of the body. The IDF confirmed that while the remains of Shiri's two sons were identified, the third body is anonymous and does not belong to her. Hamas has not responded to this assertion. Shiri Bibas and her children were kidnapped on October 7, 2023. Her husband, Yarden Bibas, was released by Hamas earlier this month.
