Occupation Army: Search for the body of the "last detainee" is a complex operation and may last for days in northern Gaza

A large-scale military operation launched by the occupation since the end of the week to locate the body of the last detainee.

The Israeli occupation prime minister's office revealed on Sunday evening the start of a large-scale military operation that the army has been conducting since the end of the week to locate the body of the last detainee held by Hamas, "Ran Gvili."

These moves come amid increasing internal pressure to completely close the detainee file.

According to the official statement issued by Netanyahu's office, army forces are conducting precise excavation and sweeping operations in a cemetery located in the northern Gaza Strip.

Sources confirmed that these operations are particularly focused on the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in eastern Gaza City, where engineering units and precise intelligence information have been used to locate the potential remains.

The operation includes the use of advanced geological survey techniques, with a tight security cordon imposed around the search areas.

The presidency indicated that these efforts fall within the government's commitment to recover all detainees, whether alive or bodies, for burial in Israel.

The Prime Minister's office clarified that Ran Gvili's family is regularly updated on all field developments.

Through this operation, Netanyahu is trying to affirm his position that "military pressure" is the only way to achieve the war's objectives, especially as the Gaza file moves into new stages coinciding with international mediations led by US President Donald Trump's administration to establish calm.

Although "Gvili" is considered the last official detainee on the occupation's lists, the exhumation operations in cemeteries have drawn widespread human rights and international criticism, as they represent a violation of the sanctity of the dead.

Nevertheless, the Israeli security establishment insists on completing the mission to close this file, which has lasted for more than two years.
