Hamas responds to "Israel's" accusations over Shiri Bibas' body

A source in Hamas responded on Friday to the Israeli Occupation's accusations regarding the body of the detained Shiri Bibas.

Hamas official Ismail al-Thawabteh stated that Bibas' body "turned to pieces after mixing with other human remains under the rubble of a site deliberately bombed by occupation aircraft," indicating that the airstrikes are the reason for the body's disappearance.

He added, "Netanyahu himself issued orders for the direct and merciless bombing, and he bears full responsibility for killing her along with her children in a horrific manner."

In response, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened Hamas with paying a "heavy price" for not handing over the body according to the agreement, claiming that Tel Aviv would work to recover her along with the other captives, whether they were alive or dead.
