Red Cross vehicles are now heading to a handover site in the central Gaza Strip to pick up the bodies of two hostages from Hamas, the IDF says.
Hamas claimed on Tuesday to have “retrieved” the bodies of two hostages, whom it named at the time. The terror group, however, did not specify the identities of the hostages it says it will hand over today.
