Israel reportedly believes that it will be possible to return all the bodies of the remaining hostages held in Gaza, with “strenuous work and cooperation” with Hamas and other parties.

Channel 12 news says Israel knows the locations of at least four of the dead hostages. The network cites three defense officials as saying that the remaining three can also be returned, though it will take time. (The tally apparently does not include the body being returned tonight, which has not yet been identified.)

“This can take time, and there are further moves that need to be carried out on the ground, but in the end, it will be possible to return them all for burial in Israel,” a defense official is cited by Channel 12 as saying.
