Netanyahu's office announces the receipt of the remains of a new Israeli prisoner, bringing the total to 11.

The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Saturday that the army and the Shin Bet received the remains of a new Israeli prisoner from the Red Cross inside the Gaza Strip, bringing the total number of bodies received by Tel Aviv to 11.

Netanyahu's office stated in a statement that "the Israel Defense Forces and the Shin Bet (General Security Service) received the coffin of a killed hostage (the remains of an Israeli prisoner) through the Red Cross."

The statement indicated that the remains would be transferred to the forensic center in Israel. It noted that all families of the deceased prisoners had been informed of the matter.

This came after Hamas announced that it would deliver the body of one of the Israeli prisoners after retrieving it on Friday in Gaza, raising the total to 11 out of 28, most of whom are Israelis.

On Monday, Hamas released the living Israeli prisoners, numbering 20, and by Friday evening, it had delivered the bodies of 11 prisoners, stating that it needed time to retrieve the remaining bodies.

On Wednesday, the Hebrew broadcasting authority reported that Tel Aviv believes that one of the bodies delivered by Hamas, through the International Committee of the Red Cross, does not belong to an Israeli prisoner.

On October 10, the first phase of an agreement for a ceasefire and prisoner exchange came into effect, according to Trump's plan.

In return, Israel released 250 Palestinian prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment, in addition to 1,718 it had arrested from the Gaza Strip after October 8, 2023.

More than 10,000 Palestinian prisoners, including children and women, remain in Israeli prisons, suffering from torture, starvation, and medical neglect, with many having died, according to Palestinian and Israeli human rights and media reports.

Since the beginning of the genocide in Gaza on October 8, 2023, Israel has killed approximately 67,967 Palestinians and injured 170,179 others, most of whom are women and children, while the famine it caused has claimed the lives of 476 Palestinians, including 157 children, and the Strip, which needs $70 billion for reconstruction, has been devastated, according to UN estimates.
