# Israel says it has received via the Red Cross in Gaza the remains of what Hamas claims are two more deceased hostages. The bodies are believed to Amiram Cooper and Sahar Baruch. If confirmed following identification, that would leave the bodies of eleven deceased hostages remaining in Gaza. The transfer of the remains comes just days after Israel carried out punishing strikes in Gaza, which killed over 100 Palestinians, in response to the Hamas killing of an Israeli soldier in Rafah.
