Missing bodies of hostages top the list of uncertainties as fragile Gaza ceasefire holds

  • On Monday, 20 living Israeli hostages and four deceased hostages were returned from Gaza under a United States-brokered ceasefire with Hamas.
  • Israel agreed to free at least 250 Palestinians and about 1,700 Gazans and pull back to the so-called yellow line, while Hamas returned only four bodies on Monday.
  • Photographs and military statements showed the reception of freed men at Re'im military base before their transfer to Israeli hospitals, with some families saying recovery could take weeks; the Israeli military identified Guy Illouz and Bipin Joshi among the deceased.
  • The ceasefire held Tuesday amid lingering complications as Hamas’s disarmament remains uncertain and the 24 unaccounted bodies keep families awaiting closure.
  • The United States expects to oversee the agreement's next phases, with the U.N., European Union and World Bank estimating $70 billion needed and an interim committee of international technocrats proposed.
