Israel has identified more bodies of dead hostages that were handed over by Hamas to ease pressure on a fragile ceasefire in its war with Israel. The handover came after an Israeli military agency warned it would slash aid deliveries to Gaza as the militant group was not returning the remains as agreed. Three of four bodies handed over on Tuesday night were identified as Israeli hostages but the identity of the fourth remained in question. The U.S.-proposed ceasefire plan had called for all hostages — living and dead — to be handed over by Monday but if that didn’t happen, Hamas was to share information about deceased hostages and try to hand over all as soon as possible.
