The IDF says it has located several bodies in the Gaza Strip, which might be remains of Israeli hostages.

“At this stage, the forces are still operating in the area and carrying out a process to extract and identify the bodies, which will last several hours,” the military says.

The IDF calls on the public not to spread unverified rumors.
