Body released by Hamas is Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas, family says

Human remains returned by Hamas to Israel on Friday are those of hostage Shiri Bibas, her family said Saturday, two days after the Palestinian militant group returned the wrong body.

Human remains returned by Hamas to Israel on Friday are those of hostage Shiri Bibas, her family said Saturday, two days after the Palestinian militant group returned the wrong body.

"Last night, our Shiri was returned home," the Bibas family said in a statement Saturday local time through the Hostages and Missing Families Forum Headquarters, a group that represents the families of those in Hamas captivity.

"Following the identification process at the Institute of Forensic Medicine, we received this morning the news we had dreaded — our Shiri was murdered in captivity and has now returned home to her sons, husband, sister, and all her family for rest," the family said.

The Israel Defense Forces, known as the IDF, has not released a statement confirming that the remains released Friday are those of Bibas.

Hamas released the remains of four hostages on Thursday, in a ceremony that featured four caskets on a stage as part of the first phase of a strained ceasefire agreement with Israel.
