As the Palestinian organization agreed to release the final hostage bodies included in the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire, Israelis grieved for the family that represented the anguish their nation endured in the October 7, 2023, attack conducted by Hamas.
Tsachi Idan, Itzhak Elgarat, Ohad Yahalomi, and Shlomo Mantzur’s remains will be freed on Wednesday night, according to Hamas, which also stated that a hospital in Gaza was getting ready to receive Palestinian inmates who will be let go in return.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that a deal had been made to turn over the bodies of four hostages who had died, but it did not identify them.
After the remains were turned over, the resolution was made the same day as the Bibas family’s funeral.
