Israeli officials are preparing for the possibility that Hamas may transfer the body of a hostage at 8:00 p.m. Monday evening.
The preparations follow a statement released Sunday by the Hamas terror group, in which it claimed that after “extensive” digging it had located the body of a deceased hostage, and would return the body to Israel “if conditions permit.”
Monday’s announcement comes after extensive IDF strikes across the Gaza Strip in response to Hamas’s violation of the ceasefire, which included multiple attacks across two days, and the deaths of two IDF soldiers in Rafah.
Earlier on Monday, the IDF identified several terrorists who crossed the “yellow line” and approached IDF troops operating in the Shejaiya area, posing an immediate threat to them.
The troops fired toward the terrorists who crossed the yellow line in order to remove the threat to them.
A short while later, the IDF identified a number of additional terrorists who crossed the yellow line and approached IDF troops operating in the Shejaiya area, posing an immediate threat to them.
