Israeli Officials Identify Hostage's Body

Israeli officials have identified the remains of a Thai hostage, Sudthisak Rinthalak, as the last of the hostages returned from Hamas. Rinthalaks body was transferred out of Gaza and identified by the Israeli military. The body of Israeli police officer Ran Gvili, still believed to be in Gaza, is a key part of the initial phase to end the conflict. Rinthalak, a 42-year-old agricultural worker, was killed during the Hamas attack in October 2023. His identification brings closure to his family. Under a ceasefire agreement, Hamas has returned all hostages and bodies, with Israel releasing around 2,000 Palestinian detainees in exchange. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story.
