The remains of Shiri Bibas have been positively identified after being returned to Israel by Hamas. Her body was handed over on Friday, following a previous mix-up where Hamas delivered a different body on Thursday. Bibas was one of four hostages believed to have been killed while in captivity. Her family confirmed the identification and expressed their heartbreak over the news, stating they had sought certainty for 16 months. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized Hamas for the earlier body mix-up. The Bibas family is now calling for the return of other hostages still held in Gaza.
