Overview

  • An Israeli military official said three bodies transferred late Friday via the ICRC were determined not to be among the Oct. 7 hostages.
  • Medical staff at Gaza’s Nasser Hospital reported receiving 30 Palestinian bodies repatriated by Israel, raising the total returned under the ceasefire to about 225, with only 75 identified so far due to limited DNA capacity.
  • Gaza health authorities say many of the returned corpses show burns, amputations and bindings, while Israel has not provided identities or causes for the remains it has repatriated.
  • Israel confirmed that Hamas earlier delivered the remains of hostages Amiram Cooper, 84, and Sahar Baruch, 25, under the exchange terms.
  • The ceasefire remains at risk as Israeli strikes continued this week with more than 100 deaths reported earlier and additional fatalities on Friday, and regional foreign ministers plan to meet in Istanbul to discuss the next phase.
