Hamas said it has handed over all Israeli hostage remains it could recover, as the Red Cross received two more coffins now headed for identification in Israel. The Gaza peace plan required 20 living and 28 deceased hostages be returned by Oct. 13; the living were released, but only some remains have arrived, leaving at least 19 unaccounted for. U.S. advisers urged patience, saying they are sharing Israeli intelligence with Hamas and that Turkey has offered search teams. Israeli officials call the delays a violation, and broader talks are snagged over disarmament and troop withdrawal.
