Gaza Committee Seeks to Identify 90 Bodies
Tap title to read story
A Gaza health official says a specialist committee is working to identify 90 Palestinians’ bodies handed over by Israel under a ceasefire deal exchanging remains for dead hostages. The ICRC transferred two batches of 45 to Nasser hospital, where staff lack names, circumstances of death, and specialist equipment such as DNA testing. Footage from the mortuary appeared to show one body blindfolded and another with wrist and ankle marks; Israel has previously rejected abuse allegations. So far, six Israeli hostages’ remains—and those of a Nepalese national and another person—were returned, as families like Rasmieh Qdeih’s wait for answers.
