Hamas hands off coffin potentially containing hostage remains to Red Cross in northern Gaza
Following the announcement, Hamas said that the body would be handed over at 5 p.m. today.
Red Cross personnel wait to head towards an area within the "yellow line" to which Israeli troops withdrew under the ceasefire, as Hamas says it continues to search for the bodies of deceased hostages seized during the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, in Gaza City November 20, 2025.
