The IDF confirmed on Friday morning that the hostage remains released on Thursday belonged to Ariel and Kfir Bibas. However, the third body “was not that of Shiri Bibas, and no match was found for any other abductee. It is an anonymous body without identification,” the military stated.
“This is a very serious violation by the Hamas terrorist organization, which is required by the agreement to return four dead hostages. We demand that Hamas return Shiri home along with all our hostages,” the military added.
Ariel and Kfir Bibas were brutally murdered in November of 2023 by terrorists in captivity, forensic findings and assessments of professional officials found, as per the Israeli military.
