The iconic Bibas children -- Ariel, 5, and Kfir, 2 -- and their mother, Shiri, have been confirmed as being among the four dead hostages to be returned Thursday to Israel under the ceasefire agreement with Hamas. Their father, Yarden, was released alive several weeks ago, and did not know the fate of his wife or their two children.

The Bibas family, including mother Shiri and children Ariel (5) and Kfir (2), have been identified as among the four dead hostages to be returned to Israel under the ceasefire agreement with Hamas. Their father, Yarden, was released alive weeks ago but did not know their fate. The family had become symbols of the hostages, with Kfir's plight gaining national attention. Hamas had previously claimed the mother and children were dead, but Israel only confirmed their deaths recently. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that Thursday would be a day of grief for Israelis. Six living hostages, including two kidnapped before the war, are also expected to be returned.
