It may take time to recover the bodies of 24 more Israeli hostages, Hamas
Gaza: After releasing 20 live hostages under the Gaza ceasefire agreement, the Palestinian resistance organization Hamas has also handed over the bodies of 4 hostages to the Israeli authorities through the International Committee of the Red Cross.
According to Israeli media, the bodies of the hostages whose bodies Hamas has handed over include Guy Elwes, Yossi Sharabi, Bipin Joshi, and Daniel Perez.
The handover of the bodies took place under full international supervision.
Hamas says that it may take time to recover the bodies of 24 more Israeli hostages because many burial sites have been destroyed due to the ongoing bombing in Gaza, and some bodies are feared to be under the rubble.
The development comes after Hamas released 20 hostages under the deal the previous day, who appeared healthy and content upon arrival in Israel.
In the second phase of the deal, 1,968 Palestinian prisoners were released from Israeli prisons and sent by bus to Gaza and the West Bank.
Emotional scenes were witnessed as the freed prisoners returned home, with people rejoicing after years of reunions.
