Four bodies transferred to Red Cross by Hamas, Israeli security official says

Hamas handed over four dead hostages to the Red Cross to secure Israel's release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners just before the ceasefire's first phase ends.
An Israeli security official confirmed the handover of the hostages' bodies to the Red Cross, facilitated by Egyptian mediators.
At the same time, a Red Cross convoy transported dozens of released Palestinian prisoners, who were welcomed by crowds in Beitunia.
The handover fulfills the obligations of both sides under the ceasefire, which included Hamas returning 33 hostages in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners.
