The Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s military wing, announced handing over the bodies of two hostages to the International Committee of the Red Cross as part of the current truce deal with the Israeli occupation.

In a separate statement, Hamas accused the Palestinian Authority of seeking political gains from the Gaza war, describing its stance as “opportunistic” and disconnected from national consensus.

The group said it continues searching for the bodies of other hostages amid the massive destruction caused by the ongoing assault.
