Israel Receives Body Said to Be Deceased Hostage While Gathering Intel on Longest-Held Remains

  • On Tuesday, Israel said it received a hostage's remains from Gaza under the United States-mediated ceasefire that began on October 10th.
  • After the Oct. 7, 2023 attack, the fighting escalated and Israel's offensive has killed more than 68,800 Palestinians, with the ceasefire aimed at winding down the conflict.
  • Israel has been following a strict exchange ratio by releasing 15 Palestinian remains per hostage, with 270 Palestinian bodies handed over so far, but fewer than half identified due to limited DNA testing kits.
  • Accusations of delay come while humanitarian access expands and Israeli troops withdraw to a demarcation line, enabling returns and more aid to enter Gaza as Israel accuses Hamas of stalling.
  • Militants in Gaza have continued releasing one to three bodies every few days, with scheduled handovers including a reported 7pm Wednesday transfer; if the latest remains are confirmed, seven bodies remain in Gaza.
