Israel prepares to receive bodies of youngest Gaza hostages

Israel prepares to receive the bodies of the two youngest captives taken by Hamas in 2023, under the terms of the Gaza ceasefire agreement. The bodies of infant Kfir Bibas and his four-year-old brother Ariel, along with two others, will be handed over on Thursday. The return of the bodies marks the first return of dead bodies during the current agreement, and Israel is expected to confirm their identities after DNA checks. The ceasefire agreement has faced criticism from far-right coalition allies of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but public support for the deal remains strong.
