Israel Holds Hamas Accountable for Body Mix-Up

The body of Shiri Bibas, an Israeli mother abducted with her two young sons by Hamas, was confirmed handed over by the Red Cross, though initially misidentified, sparking outrage from Israeli authorities. Hamas claimed a mix-up due to the chaos following an Israeli airstrike, which allegedly killed Bibas and her children. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu vowed to hold Hamas accountable for not returning Bibas's body as agreed, highlighting the fragility of the current ceasefire agreement. The bodies of her sons, Ariel and Kfir, were previously identified, having been murdered during their captivity. This incident precedes the planned release of six more hostages by Hamas, in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners by Israel.
