Late on Friday, Hamas handed over the body of another 'Israeli' captive, who was identified today. 

Since the ceasefire began, Hamas has handed over the bodies of nine 'Israelis' and one Nepalese student.

The Gaza health ministry said that alot of the bodies returned on Saturday bore signs of "abuse, beatings, handcuffing and blindfolding".

The ministry made similar claims regarding other bodies previously returned under the ceasefire agreement.

A previously released image sparked outrage by showing a Palestinian political prisoner reportedly kidnapped by Israeli forces. The photo depicts the victim with hands bound behind his back, a rope around his neck, and severe burns and disfigurement, suggesting prolonged torture and possibly a field execution.

No official information has been released regarding his identity.

The graphic details of the body, extensive burns, visible deformities, and signs of severe trauma, serve as a stark reminder of the ongoing violence faced by Palestinians.
