Israel has stated that Hamas is aware of the locations of the hostages’ bodies and warned that time was running out for the group to act.
The Israeli military confirmed that the transfer of the bodies took place at approximately 1 a.m. local time (9 a.m. Saturday AEDT).
“Will Israel use Hamas’s inability to retrieve bodies from beneath the rubble as a reason to disrupt the ceasefire? This issue is causing concern within the international community,” a source stated.
