Thousands mourn Bibas family at heartbreaking funeral

Thousands of Israelis mourned the Bibas family during their funeral on Wednesday. Shiri Bibas and her two sons, Kfir and Ariel, were killed while held captive by Hamas. Their bodies were returned as part of a hostage exchange deal. The funerals took place as Hamas handed over four more dead hostages in exchange for Israel releasing hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. Israel had delayed the release of some prisoners due to concerns over the treatment of hostages during handovers. Prime Minister Netanyahu's office stated that the latest body releases would not include ceremonies, contrasting with previous events organized by Hamas. The Bibas family’s tragic story has resonated deeply in Israel, highlighting the ongoing conflict's impact.
