Israeli forces have continued their assaults on Palestinians in Gaza despite the declared ceasefire, as Israel said it had received on Sunday the remains of a hostage that Hamas said were those of Israeli officer Hadar Goldin, killed more than a decade ago in the 2014 Gaza war.
Israeli forensic experts are expected to determine the identity of the remains now that they have been brought to Israel.
If confirmed, Goldin would be the 24th deceased hostage whose remains have been returned by Hamas since the start of the ceasefire on October 10 that has halted the latest war in Gaza, which broke out in October 2023.
Meanwhile, earlier on Sunday, Israeli strikes killed one man in the central Bureij refugee camp and two others in northern and southern areas of the enclave, according to Al Jazeera English.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Saturday that it had received the bodies of 15 Palestinians from Israel via the Red Cross, bringing the total number of bodies returned during the ceasefire to 300.
Israeli forces also carried out attacks in southern Lebanon, killing at least three people and wounding seven in a series of air raids.
