'Israeli' army: Red Cross en route to Gaza to take custody of captive remains

The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF)confirmed on Wednesday that the Red Cross is en route to northern Gaza to take custody of several captive bodies as part of the ongoing ceasefire agreement.

A joint statement from the IOF and security agency said, "The Red Cross is on its way to the meeting point in the northern Gaza Strip, where several coffins of deceased hostages will be transferred into its custody."

Hamas’s armed wing has announced it will transfer the bodies of two captives held in Gaza as part of the recent US-brokered ceasefire agreement.

In a statement, the Qassam Brigades confirmed, "The Al-Qassam Brigades have decided to hand over the bodies of two occupation prisoners in the Gaza Strip at 10:00 PM" local time.
