The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Wednesday that the results of forensic examinations showed that the remains handed over by Hamas on Tuesday do not belong to either of the last two remaining hostages in the Gaza Strip.
The official statement clarified that what was found among the "remains" returned from Gaza does not belong to the intended missing persons.
The office mentioned that the occupation forces in Gaza had received what they described as "samples," which were immediately transferred to inside Israel for precise laboratory tests, revealing that they did not match.
The International Committee of the Red Cross had previously indicated that Hamas handed over remains on Tuesday believed to belong to one of the last hostages, in accordance with the terms of a ceasefire agreement reached last October.
This concerns the bodies of two hostages that Tel Aviv continues to demand, namely: Ron Givli, an "Israeli," and Sudthesak Renthal, a Thai. It is noted that both were captured during the attack on October 7, 2023.
The remains handed over by Hamas do not belong to either of the last two remaining hostages in the Gaza Strip.
