The transfer took place after Hamas returned the remains of an Israeli hostage. The International Committee of the Red Cross confirmed that it helped deliver the bodies to Gaza. At the same time, the remains of two other people - an Israeli and a Thai citizen - remain in the sector. Hamas stated that it is "strongly committed to fulfilling its part of the agreement and returning both of them."

In parallel, mediators from Turkey, Qatar, and Egypt in Cairo are discussing the second stage of the truce, which involves the deployment of International Stabilization Forces and the creation of a body to govern Gaza. Indonesia has already announced its readiness to send up to 20,000 peacekeepers.
The situation on the ground remains difficult: most Palestinians are still displaced, dependent on aid, and reconstruction is progressing minimally.
