Hospital officials in Gaza say they have received the bodies of 15 Palestinians returned from Israel.

The handover comes in accordance with the ceasefire deal reached last month, in which Israel agreed to exchange the bodies of 15 Palestinians for every slain hostage handed over by terror groups in Gaza.

Last night, Lior Rudaeff’s body was returned to Israel by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
