An image published by the Shin Bet from Wednesday’s operation to recover the bodies of five slain hostages in the Gaza Strip shows a detained Palestinian aiding members of the security agency to locate the tunnel where the remains of the abductees were held.
The Palestinian suspect is seen wearing a military uniform and protective gear, but he is handcuffed. He is unarmed and also seen wearing blue sneakers and not army boots like the other Shin Bet agents.
IDF troops and members of the Shin Bet recovered the remains of Ravid Katz, 51, Oren Goldin, 33, Maya Goren, 56, Sgt. Kiril Brodski, 19, and Staff Sgt. Tomer Yaakov Ahimas, 20, in Khan Younis, all of whom were killed and abducted by Hamas terrorists on October 7.
The IDF said that in recent weeks it obtained intelligence, including from Shin Bet interrogations of detained terrorists in Gaza, on the location of the tunnel where Hamas was holding the bodies of the hostages.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
