The Israeli military said on Wednesday that one of the four bodies returned by Hamas on Tuesday is not that of a hostage. The bodies were handed over as part of the ceasefire deal brokered by US President Donald Trump. After forensic tests, Israeli officials found that one body did not match any of the known hostages. So far, Hamas has returned eight bodies and 20 living hostages. Israel urged Hamas to return all remaining deceased hostages as agreed. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would not stop its efforts until every hostage, living or dead, is brought back. (PC: HT)
