At the National Institute of Forensic Medicine in Abu Kabir, the identification process of the body that was returned last night was completed this morning (Tuesday) - and it is not that of one of the 13 dead abductees that Hamas pledged to return.
The Abu Kabir Institute determined that these are likely findings related to a murdered Israeli who had already been brought for burial in Israel.
Following Hamas' violation of the agreement, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will convene a discussion today to consider Israel's response measures.
According to a report on Channel 12, "a specific and immediate sanction" is being considered, coordinated with the Americans. An Israeli source described: "Israel will not be able to wait any longer and refrain and will take steps in relation to this violation by Hamas.".
Member of the Political and Security Cabinet, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, sent an urgent letter to the Prime Minister calling for a meeting of the small cabinet to discuss Israel's response to Hamas' violations of the ceasefire agreement.
Otzma Yehudit Chairman, Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir: "The fact that Hamas continues to play games, and not immediately transfer all the bodies of our fallen - is in itself evidence that the terrorist organization is still on its feet.
It's time to break those legs once and for all. Now we don't have to 'charge Hamas' for the violations.
We need to reclaim its very existence, and destroy it completely, once and for all - in accordance with the central goal defined for the War of Rebirth. Mr. Prime Minister, enough hesitating - give the order!""
According to a report in Kan News, a security source said last night that Hamas is pursuing a deliberate policy of slowly releasing the dead hostages, and that Israel has proof of this. Despite this, Israel is yielding to pressure from mediators to allow Hamas to stage pointless patrols across the Yellow Line.
