Who Was Arie Zalamanowicz, Kibbutz Nir Oz Founder Killed by Hamas Captors in Gaza?

The bodies of two Israeli hostages killed during the 2023 conflict were returned from Gaza, with Hamas handing them over to the Red Cross, Israeli officials confirmed.

  • According to assessments, Ari Zalmanovich was abducted alive from Kibbutz Nir Oz by Hamas, and Tamir Adar was killed defending his kibbutz and taken captive by Hamas.
  • Officials said they had positively identified Adar's remains, noting his role on the Nir Oz rapid response team, and Boaz Zalmanovich wrote that his father was returned.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with Hassan Rashad, Egyptian intelligence chief, as Tuesday's Israel-Hamas cease-fire updates featured the bodies’ returns and ongoing cease-fire negotiations.
  • The United States has expressed support for Israel's position amid returns and cease-fire talks, while the Palestinian Education Ministry reported more than 19,910 students killed and 30,097 wounded.
