The Israeli military claimed Hamas failed to hand over the body of one of its hostages, and says it instead has received unidentified remains.
Authorities confirmed on Friday that two bodies released by Hamas had been identified as infant Kfir Bibas and his four-year-old brother, Ariel Bibas.
It said a third body was not that of Shiri Bibas, the children’s mother, whose body was also supposed to be released, and that it did not belong to any other hostage. The body remains unidentified, the military added.
