Israel Receives Remains of 3 Hostages in Gaza

In the aftermath of the October ceasefire, the Red Cross receives the remains of three Israeli hostages in Gaza, with plans to return them to Israel's military. Hamas claims the bodies were found in a tunnel, but the process of returning hostages' remains has been slow, with only seventeen sets released so far. Families on both sides have been deeply impacted, with Gaza's health officials facing challenges in identifying bodies due to lack of proper DNA testing kits. The United States-brokered ceasefire agreement calls for an international force to secure Gaza's borders, but many countries are asking for a clear UN mandate before sending in peacekeepers. Lingering questions remain about the future of Gaza, with over sixty-eight thousand Palestinians reported killed, and families searching for answers and hoping for a lasting peace.
