Isael Recovers 3 Hostage Bodies From Gaza

"In an operation by the Shin Bet and the IDF in the Gaza Strip, the bodies of three of our abductees who were held by the murderous terrorist organization Hamas were returned to Israel:
Yonatan Samrano, Sergeant Shai Levinson, and Ofra Kedar, may their memory be blessed, who were murdered and kidnapped on October 7, 2023.

Together with all the citizens of Israel, my wife and I extend our heartfelt condolences to the dear families, and share in their great sorrow.

I thank our commanders and fighters for a successful operation, for their determination and courage.

The campaign to return the abductees continues continuously and is taking place in parallel with the campaign against Iran.

We will not rest until we return all of our abductees home - both the living and the dead." - Netanyahu (unofficial translation)
