Israel says it has identified two of the dead bodies returned by Hamas on Thursday as Ariel and Kfir Bibas – but tests show another body that was expected to be that of their mother Shiri is not hers – and does not match any other Israeli hostage.

The remains of a woman killed while in captivity by Hamas was supposedly handed over to Israel on Friday, a day after her body was supposed to be brought back.

The body of Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas has been returned to Israel after Hamas sent back the wrong human remains.
