Israel and Hamas exchange bodies of Gaza war victims

Israel and Hamas completed the latest exchange of mortal remains between the two sides on Saturday, with the body of a hostage returned to Israel and 15 Palestinians returned to Gaza, according to officials in the territory.

The hostage was identified as Lior Rudaeff, according to the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The Hostages and Families of the Disappeared Forum said Rudaeff was born in Argentina.

The exchanges are the centerpiece of the initial phase of the ceasefire, which calls for Hamas to return all remaining hostages as soon as possible.

For every Israeli hostage returned, Israel has released the mortal remains of 15 Palestinians.

Meanwhile, officials at the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry said 69,169 Palestinians have been killed during Israel's offensive on the enclave. The ministry's figures do not distinguish between civilian and militant deaths.

The latest surge in deaths came as more bodies were pulled from the rubble in Gaza since the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel began on October 10. At the same time, previously unidentified bodies were identified. A large number of Palestinians remain missing, the ministry added. /CNA
