“The Government of Israel shares the deep pain of the Hamami, Neutra and Daniel families and of all the families of the deceased hostages,” indicates the note, which adds that “Hamas is obliged to fulfill its obligations to the mediators and repatriate the deceased” within the framework of the ceasefire.
With the return of these three bodies by the terrorist group, There are still 8 bodies of Israeli hostages in the Palestinian Strip.
Although Hamas does not announce in advance the bodies of the hostages it hands over, this Sunday it did release images of a white bag with the name of Asaf Hamami, 40, as well as his driver’s license.
Hamami had the highest rankas colonel of the Southern Brigade of the Gaza Division of the Army, among the soldiers killed by Hamas during the terrorist attacks of October 7, 2023. That day, Gazan militiamen killed almost 1,200 people and kidnapped another 251 in Israeli territory.
The Al Qasam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, claimed to have found three bodies this Sunday in southern Gaza, whose delivery was scheduled for the afternoon. US President Donald Trump confirmed that one of the bodies belonged to Israeli American soldier Omer Maxim Neutra, 21, murdered between the Nir Oz and Nirim kibbutzim.
Oz Daniel, 19, served in the same tank as Neutra, attacked with explosive devices and RPG shotsand died during the fighting with the terrorists on October 7. Also in the car was Nimrod Cohen, one of the last 19 hostages delivered alive by Hamas.
On Saturday, the Red Cross, together with Egyptian forces and members of Al Qasam, entered Beni Suhaila, by Jan Yunisa city located south of the enclave, to search for hostage bodies. Beni Suhaila is still under the control of the Israeli Army as it is beyond the yellow line.
The yellow line is the imaginary border to which the Israeli Army had to withdraw when the ceasefire came into force, and all the territory between this demarcation and the border between Israel and Gaza (a perimeter of more than 50% of the enclave) remains under the control of the armed forces.
On Friday, the Islamist group delivered three bodies to the Red Cross which, once identified in Israel, were found not belong to any hostage. This, however, had no consequences since Hamas had previously reported that it did not know for certain the identity of the bodies it was delivering. Tel Aviv returned the three bodies to Gaza shortly afterwards.
