The occupation receives "samples of remains" and says they do not belong to any of its prisoners.

The occupying state announced on Tuesday that it received "samples of remains" transferred via the Red Cross, which are believed to belong to one of the two prisoners whose bodies it claims are still inside the Gaza Strip. However, the Israeli forensic department stated that they do not belong to any of its prisoners.

The office of the occupying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated in a statement that "Israel received samples of remains transferred from the Gaza Strip via the Red Cross and handed over to the army and the internal security agency within the strip."

Later, the occupying authorities announced that the remains samples do not belong to either of the two prisoners it claims "are still in the strip." This was according to what was announced by the forensic institute on Tuesday evening, according to the Hebrew broadcasting authority.

The institute stated that "the samples sent from Gaza do not belong to the remains of any of the remaining deceased abductees."

Tel Aviv conditions the start of negotiations to launch the second phase of the ceasefire agreement on receiving all the bodies of the prisoners, while there are 9,500 missing Palestinians killed by the Israeli army, and their bodies remain under the rubble of homes destroyed during the genocide, according to the government media office in Gaza.

On October 10, the ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Tel Aviv came into effect, which was supposed to end the Israeli genocide that left more than 70,000 Palestinian dead and about 171,000 injured.

However, Israel repeatedly violated the agreement, resulting in martyrs and injuries among Palestinian civilians, while Hamas announced its commitment to the terms and demanded that mediators compel Tel Aviv to implement them.
