Nach Angaben eines hochrangigen Hamas-Führers sollen am Donnerstag die Leichen von vier Geiseln übergeben werden. Unter den Toten sollen auch Shiri Bibas und ihre beiden Kleinkinder sein.
Hamas plans to transfer the bodies of four Israeli hostages, including the Bibas family, on Thursday and release six live hostages on Saturday. Israel will respond by freeing Palestinian prisoners and allowing construction equipment into the Gaza Strip. Negotiations continue for further hostage releases, with Israel opposing Hamas maintaining military strength.
