Eyal Mor, the nephew of slain hostage Avraham Munder, tells the Kan public broadcaster that Munder’s body has been recovered from a tunnel in Gaza’s Khan Younis by the IDF.
“According to initial estimations, the death happened already in March,” Mor says, adding that the family hasn’t been told the cause of death as officials await a pathological report.
The military is due to release details to the public later.
Another nephew of Munder, Shahar Mor Zahiro, tells Radio 103FM that the government “wasted time and opportunities to save him.”
“This is another horrific case, the blood is on the hands of the government,” he charges. “For [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu’s survival, my uncle died. Get all the living hostages out now.”
